muziksculp Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 Hi, I'm still running OSX-Leopard (10.5.8.) with LP8, on a Mac Pro 8 core (first generation), I'm planning to move forward to LP9, but I'm not sure about upgrading to OSX-Snow Leopard at this point in time. Does OSX-SL currently offer any 'major' advantages to LP9 ? If it does, what are these advantages ? or would I still be fine running LP9 in OSX 10.5.8 (Leopard) ? Do you think it is wise to wait a bit longer before moving to OSX-Snow Leopard ? I'm not in a big rush, also given that LP9 has not been updated to 64-bit yet, so, I'm not sure how useful OSX-SL will be, plus, some of my other apps are still not officially supported on OSX-SL. Some feedback on this topic would be helpful. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JosephJones Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 I'm running LP9 on OSX-Snow Leopard and it's running perfectly fine. I'd say wait a bit tho if some of your other apps aren't compatible with Snow Leopard. Apart from the obvious benefits such as freeing up space there's no real reason as to why you should upgrade... yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mconnelly Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 I always do a test install of new major versions of OSX on a second hard drive. Test it out, but still have the ability to boot into the old version if there's a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muziksculp Posted October 13, 2009 Author Share Posted October 13, 2009 Thanks for the feedback. I will wait a bit longer. Since LP9 does not seem to greatly benefit from OSX-SL at this time. OSX-Leopard is still pretty cool, and very stable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
