Come on folks we are Omega testers here

I know the Apple community has grown a lot lately so it bears repeating that Apple releases their OS's intending their users to be the final line of testers or as I call us "OMEGA" testers.

It really is a good philosophy because you simply can never get everything out in limited Beta. To me this is one of the joys of being an Apple user. We are not treated like children who need a completely carefree experience. Ultimately the OS's iron out these wrinkles and become the envy of Redmond that they always become. By doing things like this we as Mac users get to have OS's that push the bounds of technology and the software experience.

If you want hand holding you can go to Microsoft and ..ooohhhhh.....that's not working out so well for them is it?

You know compared to the nightmare I experience on my Windows machine when I upgraded to Vista this is a walk in the park with a beautiful woman.

Are there problems? Yep. Would I put it on my production machine? Nope. Not until I tested it on another machine with all my driver/software configurations. Would I recommend to a user with low tolerance that they use leopard right now? Nope, not for several weeks or even after the holidays or days leading up to Macworld.

Anyway, my two bits.
