Mac OS X V10.5 Advanced System Administration (Apple Training Series) - Edward R. Marczak

Mac OS X Leopard

Advantages: 300+ new features, time saving, great system!
Disadvantages: none?

I bought a new Powerbook earlier this year which came preloaded with this, the latest mac operating system. The new interface is great! it comes with extra programs including boot camp, this allows you to run multiple operating systems from your mac, on start up you simply hold the 'options' key and the choice comes up of which os you boot from, i thought it would be very slow, but it works at regular speed and works seamlessly! its like having three separate computers! a mac, windows and Linux all at once! Another new feature is 'quick look' you can view a file in a scrolling album style interface without actually opening them, works the same with music and video, this is very good and saves opening programs constantly. It can zoom so you can view and read word, excel and PowerPoint docs without actually opening them! Time machine is ...

Review of Apple Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard

The Best OS Apple created so far

Advantages: Very easy to install and use, more than 300 cool features

Review of Apple Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard

Mac OS X (Complete Package)

Advantages: Very similar to Windows XP
Disadvantages: Very different from Mac OS 9

I use an Mac for work purposes and a PC at home. On the Mac, time is of great importance and every feature that saves time saves money and there are quite a few great time saving features on Mac OS X that do just that! If you are a PC user and currently use Windows XP then the new operating for the Apple Mac will be very appealing to you. It is very similar in many ways to that of Windows XP. One of the main differences that Mac OS X has which is one of my favourite features is that it has what is called a dock. This is a bar that can sit either at the bottom of the screen or on either side and you can use it to add in short cuts to all your software. Also if you have folders that you access alot and you don't want to keep trying to find them all the time then you can add them to the dock. All you then have to do is go to the dock ...
