Engadget’s Leopard Impressions

October 27th, 2007  |  Published in Apple, Blog, Links

OS X Leopard is out!!! Engadget has been collecting impressions of the new OS in their article “All about Leopard: gallery, apps, impressions

Install was pretty painless. A few clicks and you’re off. It took just under an hour (58 minutes, to be exact) to do its thing, despite the installer claiming it would be a 3-4 hour upgrade for our stock MacBook Pro.

For old school users: installing the barebones OS onto a G4 Power Mac’s freshly formated disk took just 20 minutes.

The install chewed up a good 3.3GB of space on top of what was already there. Apple recommends a solid 9GB, so be prepared if you’re constantly low on space like us.
