July 29, 200916 yr Mmm I think so because the MS Office on my mac doesn't have it (2008 )? And my PC does (2007)? I've looked for it on Word many times and never found it.

August 27, 200916 yr Author Good news, everybody! Not only does Snow Leopard not require the entry of any serial numbers, but the standard version of Snow Leopard is a bootable
August 27, 200916 yr I'd been hearing that too. Plan to try it out the full install option on the MBP with a new Segate 500GB 7200RPM laptop drive. Oh, and supposedly you hold down "6" and "4" on boot to install the 64-bit version. I hear it doesn't boot on all supposedly 64-bit capable Macs, but I plan to give it a try to see.
August 27, 200916 yr Any chance copies of the snow leopard will be in store Friday? I cancelled my Amazon preorder due to it's arrival in mid-September (according to my status email), and I'm itchin' for some grand central.
August 27, 200916 yr 1) $29 2) Far superior multiprocessor and graphics card support (only for Apple applications right now until 3rd parties catch up) 3) Faster handling of large files/directories (think large itunes libraries or pictures) There's really no flash to it. Very little new functionality to the user, just a faster, more efficient experience. The big deal to my eyes is the new "Grand Central", which is the new method of dividing tasks between processor cores, trying to fully utilize them. Early reviews show a speed increase in almost every task, with significant (100%+) increases for very processor-heavy tasks.

August 27, 200916 yr Also, Exchange support. Don't know if you use that, but I'll finally be able to ditch the third party calendar syncing with my windows laptop.
August 27, 200916 yr This is probably only relevant for myself but ONLY Adobe CS4 apps are approved to work with Snow Leopard. Probably doesnt mean that older versions won't work but its still a factor
August 27, 200916 yr This is probably only relevant for myself but ONLY Adobe CS4 apps are approved to work with Snow Leopard. Probably doesnt mean that older versions won't work but its still a factor Interesting. I'll be testing CS2 on it tomorrow after I get it running. Some of my plugins don't cooperate with 4, so I keep 2 around (and in general prefer it for my limited applications).
August 27, 200916 yr Just got a Macrumors post.. seems CS3 pretty much does work, but Adobe hasn't tested it rigorously enough to declare it 'supported'.
