XP Vs. Vista and Mac OS

[quote=Mike Redmer] i use leopard in many different shows and hardware setups in the last 2 month, but you can use them only if you have hardware, where exists leopard updates

...(Believe me this is driving CATALYST programmers and users absolutely crazy right now)...

i haven't any trouble in the last two month with catalyst and leopard. i use leopard while quartz have a lot of new stuff in it. the main thing with catalyst - is software only and so you have to learn and understand osx and your hardware. fe you can run 4k movies but not with each hardware, and runs also in leopard. of course they have performance problems, but hopefully it's just a question of the next month. it is a big step to 64 bit.


Here is a link one of several threads in the CATALYST forums on some of the troubles Leopard is posing right now:

The X1900XT RADEON cards overheat, and the software performs very poorly right now.

Make no mistake here...Leopard is is MUCH MUCH better shape than Vista, and probably will have the bugs worked out faster. It is the fact that there is not even an option to aquire Tiger when buying a new machine is what really annoys me!!

Even programs like Vectorworks are affected...if you don't have the latest version, it won't run on Leopard.

I use both Mac and PC....each is suited for tasks better than the other...there is no "cookie cutter" solution here.

If the perfect computer existed, then everyone would buy that and there would be no others...and life would be rather dull;)
