How soon before you upgrade to Leopard?
It’s a late on a Friday night here in Kentucky as I’m typing this up. I’m sitting, as usual, in front of my trusty iMac and things have changed very little from any other day. Why, you ask? I haven’t done it yet.
I didn’t pre-order. I didn’t run to the new Apple Store in Louisville to pick up a copy, even though I still have that bright shiny $100 rebate to use, you know, the one that Apple handed to all of us early iPhone adopters to quell our searing hatred after the price drop heard round the world. Yeah, that $100 rebate.
I haven’t done what I know that most of you other Mac crazies have already done. I’m sitting here still running OS X 10.4 "Tiger" while you are knee-deep in the 300+ new features in OS X 10.5 "Leopard".
Call me crazy, but I’m gonna wait a little bit.
I know there won’t be a price drop like the iPhone debacle, but I’m just going to wait a few days, or weeks, to see how things go with the new OS as it is released on a large scale basis. Reviews can be all rosy and warm, but how well will the upgrades go when there are people like me that have never upgraded an OS on the Mac. And you know that there are quite a few of us out there now. More new Macs are being sold to switchers than ever before and the vast majority of those have never done an OS upgrade on a Mac. I’m not even sure how many have done a Windows OS upgrade.
So, my question is this, how long are you waiting before you upgrade to Leopard? Have you taken the plunge already? If so, how is the experience? Remember, I’m still pretty new to the Mac world, so let me know how things go!
