Well I spent several hours with Snow today and well it looks like its going to be a very promising OS. Decent changes are.
Expose
General Installation " Custom Options"
QuickTime.
Apple Driver support (Printing)
Using Rosetta.
64bit Architecture.
Lots more! Well I'm not going to spoil anything else but it seems pretty decent.

Is that all, nothing special then.

I wonder if the performance changes are noticeable from Leopard.

I have rosetta stone on my windows machine but not my mac. is there some problem with it on macs?

You can't dangle this in front of us and not elaborate!

Cosmetically there isn't much that's changed from 10.5 to 10.6. Most of the improvements are under the hood and will affect performance more than anything.
I've been using it for almost a week now and as mentioned, there are a few things like Expose that have been refined, but otherwise nothing revolutionary. -
what about bootcamp

what are the improvements in "expose" ? Are they more to do with performance and greater "fluidity of the expose experience" / are there UI improvements?
One thing I personally dislike about expose is a situation where for instance I have for windows of Safari (same sized) and I do an expose on Safari - they all line up side by side.... and it looks so wierd... and slightly unintelligent ... cluttering up the mid section of the page instead of intelligently distributing the windows across the screen (i know the solution to this problem is to just resize one of the windows manually ... but it's an unintelligent thing to do) ... -
I wonder how many people here are actual developers that were given a copy of SL directly from Apple? Day by day I notice that people are freely talking about using SL as if they got it elsewhere.

I haven't tried it but IMO it is not that much more Leopard is looking at the Apple site and various forum discussions. I will wait for all kinks to be worked out before upgrading. I am more than happy with 10.5.8.

If i was not getting the discounted snow leopard price, I would not buy it knowing you still cannot use the 9400m in bootcamp.
