Leopard for "just" £85 from tomorrow.

Let's hope it's better than Vista folks.

All reviews so far say yes. Mine arrives tomorrow, I'll see then, I'm worried that I'm excited about an OS release though...

> Vista folks

This'll be the multi-user version of Vista Home, yes?

But your money gets an OS that works :)

Talk about setting your sights low.

As long as they made sure that the drivers work with the OS then you've probably got a fair bet with the Vista stuff.

Oh, and as long as they didn't break any UI(*) or thing that worked previously by "improving it".

(*) - Networking - come on guys, it worked fine(ish) in XP, it didn't need to be broken.

Nah, the TCP/IP stack in XP works fine, but network authentication and SMB file sharing are still the crufty nightmares they've always been. Not that Vista is actually an improvement, of course, but there was plenty of room for improvement.

Well I was thinking just of the connectivity menus - seriously getting M's laptop to see our WiFi and link to it was a nightmare.
