I'm a fanboy, I love Apple. 12 years on Windows, yet only 3 on Mac and I loved the switch.No one ever says there isn't issues on a Mac, but they seem FAR FAR less than Windows ;)

I figure you are being sarcastic. But when apple codenames things they have usually been using space related themed names. Either that or they really liked that movie...I am personally pretty tired of the cat names though. I'm ready for OS 11 and some shark names!!! OS 11 Hammerhead!!!

I think some precision is needed here. For most users, Linux is not free because of the self-support time/costs. For folks who already like and/or work with Linux and Unix variants and know them well, it is much cheaper than paying real money for the commercial OS offerings.Sadly, in my opinion, for the typical home or desktop user, Linux still doesn't make much sense.

Anyone else experience issues with the way leopard's DNS resolver first attempts SRV requests for lookups using the getaddrinfo() function? it seems these requests ge dropped therefore DNS lookups take an extended period of time to complete (upwards of a minute) before falling back to making an A record request (if the attempts do not timeout before a typical a record request is issued). I've spend a long time talking with apple about this and have yet to obtain a solution. Typically connection is most sporadic to google and apple's site itself. The behavior results in a message stating it's unable to make a connection or only the html is rendered and external assets such as js, css etc. are not loaded (typically when they are located on an assets server because that address cannot be resolved by leopard). I really hope this update I'm about to install fixes this issue.
