為什麼豹子比景色不好

在星期六我買了豹子的我的拷貝從地方蘋果計算機公司商店。 授予，我只使用了軟件二天，但是它做了卓越地快速的第一次印刷。 大約有對像豹子，但這貓scratchesâ€」 oh，是我受傷了。

什麼煩擾我關於豹子是什麼被煩擾我關於景色八個月前：
*特點或UI變動做，不用真正地充足的理由
*應用兼容性問題
*被減少的表現與前輩比較操作系統
*使厭煩的感覺在之前運輸的軟件真正地準備好

我在蘋果計算機公司為測試的開口提供的MacBook測試了豹子讚成： 2.4GHz處理器， RAM、256MB圖形轉移加速電極4GB和160GB硬盤。 我保持筆記本長為豹子測試。 疑義某人不會請求出貸者後面，這個崗位在Cupertino附近很快通過。

我的問題與相當迅速開始的豹子。 因為它如此增加了期望關於那些300個新的特點，蘋果計算機公司的前豹子發射營銷惡化了問題。 蘋果計算機公司的通過實踐交付更多比被許諾給了一些信心關於豹子。 肯定，真實地有一些專家轟隆改進，與某些表面上最小有大衝擊(例子： 用戶從主要聚光燈查尋窗口類型在定義在字典裝於罐中發現詞)。 但兼容性和性能問題帶給我許多麻煩。

一些快的例子： *新的蘋果計算機公司郵件可能從我的個人領域的IMAP服務器不再刪除消息; 他們在inbox堆
*豹子與Cisco VPN的我的版本是不相容的。 我搜尋兼容升級
*徒步旅行隊碰撞…足够經常
*外型網有時郵件工作在徒步旅行隊，但通常垂懸; 它是A-OK在Firefox
*互聯網連接是慢吞吞的并且慢慢地尋址(通過蘋果計算機公司機場路由器連接); 表現是迅速的比較起來在窗口景色或老虎

接口變動增加多餘的複雜到操作系統。 另一增加的複雜： 像微軟，蘋果計算機公司增加了新和討厭的安全提示到操作系統。 今晨，我下載了更新NewsFire RSS讀者并且得到了警告彈出式問我是否真正地想打開這applicationâ€」，因為它來自互聯網。 可能蘋果計算機公司的用戶界面設計師應該觀看他們自己的電視商務： 「安全」。

I’m going to give Leopard another day, but already I’m thinking about switching the MacBook Pro back to Tiger. Isn’t that a story told and retold about Vista, where people went back to XP? It’s a story other Leopard adopters may tell.

My point: Leopard is no better than Vista, in the sense that some—perhaps many—of the same migration complaints and problems apply. Windows’ visibility and exponentially large number of applications amplify its complaints. There are more potential problems to have with Windows compared to MAC OS X. Besides, Microsoft is the successful company so many people love to hate. Criticism is easy, and it’s frequent.

Leopard’s problems would be a whole lot bigger if more businesses used Mac OS X. I’m simply one consumer user. By the way, I had no serious problems (other than Cisco VPN) migrating to Leopard’s two predecessors, Panther and Tiger. My user experience, while anecdotal, shows the problems that can come as an operating system adds on features and its supporting ecosystem of software increases. Those 300 new features have their price in increased complexity and compatibility problems.

By the way, Cover Flow is the one Leopard feature I really like. Cover Flow lets me scan through documents without opening them, which is hugely convenient. But the one compelling feature won’t be enough to stick with Leopard, particularly if personal and professional e-mail problems persist. By comparison, Vista’s shakedown is largely over. I have little to complain about and lots more to like about Vista than I did in February.
