- ericdano, on 02/11/2008, -55/+243Lets see, Vista has been out for a year. They are still working on a service pack. Apple has Leopard out since October, and they have had two service revisions.
Go Apple. - flipmeat, on 02/11/2008, -15/+119Good news everyone! 10.5.0 is now complete. :-)
- pwnrOiNK, on 02/11/2008, -2/+96Leopard Graphics Update becomes available in Software Update after you install 10.5.2. Reboot also required.
- Mejogid, on 02/11/2008, -13/+85I'm a happy Leopard user but I don't think that's a very fair comparison. MS fix things quite regularly with small updates, then combine them with more sweeping updates in service packs. Apple just releases bundles of updates, which generally slip in a few new features. The two models are very different and it's illogical to compare them like that.
- AndreasTh, on 02/11/2008, -1/+68There is no such thing as an OS without bugs :(
- bonjourmr, on 04/25/2008, -44/+95When Windows releases an update, they are fixing a broken product.
When Apple releases an update, they are supplying extra stuff to their product.
Thats how Digg users see it anyways. - simplenation, on 02/11/2008, -11/+45earlier than expected! awesome
- FoxFaction, on 02/11/2008, -6/+37Microsoft updates are "released", apple updates "go live". So much more exciting.
- Rauby, on 02/11/2008, -9/+38Finaly. Thanks Apple!
- roblawton, on 02/11/2008, -2/+27Stacks turn into Folders... LOVE IT!
- pyrates, on 02/11/2008, -8/+33Apparently ericdano seems to think windows update doesn't exist, hot fixes doesn't exist, individual patches doesn't exist, but only service packs exist. And Windows Vista SP1 was already RTM'd on the 4th. But we all know the only reason 10.5.1 was put out was to fix that huge blunder of data loss that was discovered when moving files/directories. How that ever got past QA is beyond me. It's such a basic test.
- jtown, on 02/11/2008, -3/+25Will Time Machine finally work properly using a network volume?
- malechite, on 02/11/2008, -10/+32I'm sorry but in my experience, its the other way around. talk to any Vista user, they hate it and cant wait for SP1, talk to any leopard user, and the love it, and still look forward to updates.
I'm sorry you had a crappy Leopard rollout. - roblawton, on 02/11/2008, -3/+24Glad to see mail fixed...!
- markusfarkus, on 02/11/2008, -5/+24Yup, that's why it's a list of fixes.
- MacParrot, on 02/11/2008, -0/+18I'm guessing the Zoo.
Trying to stick DVDs or an ethernet cable into a pissed off Leopard just can't be any fun. - inactive, on 02/12/2008, -8/+25Actually MS pushes out more updates on a regular basis. The "service backs" are simply bundles. There have been more holes with OSX than with Vista, proven by side by side updates.
Apple has yet tp fix external time machine backups with many drives as well as a few other holes in their OS. Expect a rather hefly "update" from Apple in the near future for these.
Ironically Vista has needed few fixes and few holes than OSX. But MS still has come out with patches faster than OSX.
So Apple was the one that rushed it this time, and MS did it right... cats and dogs living together now? Mass hysteria? - slvrbullet87, on 02/11/2008, -4/+19Linux has the fewest bugs because nothing works on it in the first place.
- smoger, on 02/11/2008, -4/+19..such as?
- TeamWookie, on 02/11/2008, -7/+21All the IT surveys I've read rank MS among the quickest to release updates. Vista had hand plenty of updates since it's been released.
- jw1223, on 02/11/2008, -3/+17Whoa! Something on tv ended up being untrue? NO WAY!
Anyway, who ever said mac's don't have to restart?? - PA42, on 02/11/2008, -2/+16The only thing worse than a fan boy is the anti-fanboy ... so pathetic.
- KSUdesigner, on 02/11/2008, -2/+15OS X is already many years ahead, it was introduced in 2001.
- pyrates, on 02/11/2008, -6/+19Please point out these glaring issues. People keep saying Vista has issues but never can say what exactly those issues are.
- Protoss, on 02/11/2008, -2/+1550 Leopards? Badass, where do you work?
- Ireland, on 02/11/2008, -0/+12Sadly Safari 3.1 wasn't bundled.
- WiLLGT09, on 02/11/2008, -0/+12ooh, that's what that was. it never showed me what it had installed. perfect, no more DVD Player kernel panics
- DaffyDuck, on 02/11/2008, -0/+12What are you having for dinner?
- MacParrot, on 02/11/2008, -3/+14Why yes it usually does. As does Windows and Linux when maintained and updated properly. Stop trolling.
- Reaktor5, on 02/11/2008, -0/+11Can*
- sq2shooter, on 02/11/2008, -1/+12Damn that took a while. I was getting a little nervous after it installed then restarted then restarted again. Good to go now.
- Fedorian, on 02/11/2008, -2/+13Exposé isn't choppy anymore! wohoo!
- Ireland, on 02/11/2008, -1/+12Holy ***** that was not necessary.
This is all you had to do: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=307 ... - wellyuk, on 02/11/2008, -2/+13You know this do you? Where's your information from?
- coolbru, on 02/12/2008, -3/+13That's just because MS ones have usually been in captivity for some years.
- gavroche, on 02/11/2008, -17/+27Does it fit in a manila envelope?
- circusbred, on 02/11/2008, -1/+11There is no such thing as software without bugs D:
- beerbarron, on 02/11/2008, -1/+11Groovy! Hope it fixes a few other things, including mail stability...full list of fixes is on apple's website
- 4ndr3wk, on 02/12/2008, -2/+12Apple did.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qXktHIBB3Cw - inactive, on 02/11/2008, -7/+16I don't think so.
Mac using digg user. - inactive, on 02/12/2008, -2/+11You would be the first one to say "OMG Windows is so buggy they have keep on releasing service packs. MS sucks" if MS released SPs as quickly and as frequently as Apple.
- UKsHaDoW, on 02/11/2008, -1/+10Consider yourself lucky, mines 341mb?
- markintosh, on 02/12/2008, -0/+8Yea, but I'd much rather not remember my days of working with OS 10.1.5 on my G3 iBook.
- Kalakov, on 02/11/2008, -5/+13Hmm... mine says 341 MB
- blackjack75, on 02/11/2008, -1/+9I have an easy technique to spot them. Just read the homepage.
- latenightmac, on 02/11/2008, -4/+12Wooo hooo turn off the transparent menu bar under desktop and screensaver, now I can switch it off I decide I quite like it!
- mikev, on 02/11/2008, -1/+9you are dumb. system updates change system files
- Ireland, on 02/11/2008, -0/+7Honest question: what issues were you having with Mail?
- jw1223, on 02/11/2008, -3/+10Works well enough that I can bury you.
- luchid, on 02/11/2008, -2/+9It has to for updates. I don't recall the commercials saying it didn't.
