Snow Leopard?

[VernJensen]

Anyone here running Snow Leopard? I had a user ask if Midnight Mansion would run on it, and admittedly I've been too busy with Insectoid development to run out and get Snow Leopard and try it. But I'm guessing it'll work just fine. Can anyone confirm?

It works fine!! Jack is a little snappier but still jumps in to lava and falls of ledges though!

That's good to know. I have an iMac (PPC) that has chronic hardware problems, and I may be getting a new one soon. That'll have Snow Leopard on it, and I was worried about MM.

Hi Semi-Native, not sure if this helps you at all but my PPC runs best on 10.3.9. It hated 10.0-10.2 and 10.4 :-?

My PPC works fine on 10.5.7 still need to do the last upgrade.

[Semi-Native]

Yeah, I'm still running 10.4.11. I always like to lag way behind a new OS to give them time to work out the major bugs.

Me too !!
I always like to be on the safe side..... especially since my Mac is my

working/studio Mac

at the same time and has a whole armada of audio, video and graphic applications running on it.

Updating all these bits of software due to a major OS update can be a real hassle......

I wouldn't worry much Vern snow leopard wasn't too big of a upgrade. They focused mostly on compressing the hard disk together letting the computer run faster. The OpenCL software they gave actually before I installed I had 20 GBs available, now I have 35 GBs.

It didn't change MM at all, just a bit smoother I find.

And Quicktime now has the ability to screen record, but it records the whole screen not just a selection. And they completely removed the video editing ability, to select a part of the movie and cut/copy/paste what you want, which is annoying.

From what I read, you can look in /Utilities to find the old QuickTime, which should still have editing capabilities.

Oh wow that's good to know. Thanks Vern.
