Leopard plays nice

The time was right to plunge into Leopard despite the "blue screen of death" postings everywhere

Apple Logo .jpg imageThere are three Macs in the house. First cab off the rank was the MacBook Pro and the upgrade was seamless.
Next the better half's little G4 which wouldn't let the upgrade get to the first furlong.
The various forums repeatedly said that any third party addons could stop it like a ton of bricks. So, the missus gets out the screwdriver, removes the additional 512k ram and bingo, it installed faultlessly. Slotted the ram back in and it's purring like a kitten.

The iMac is next and should be fine.

First observations are it looks sharper, runs faster and Spaces is nifty, especially on the smaller laptop screens.

Blue screen of death ! I thought Macs were bullet proof and never crashed or failed ?

I recently fell in love with an iMac and thought of selling my PC and Laptop to raise funds towards one, they seem expensive though and just couldn't justify the price and whether it was worth it ? Mind you if you have 3 maybe you could tell me more?

An iMac is what I class as Bang for Buck.
But, at the end of the day, it's just a computer :)

They look nice but as you say, its just a computer. Maybe when my machine dies I might re consider :)
