Snow Leopard: So far, so good

So Snow Leopard came out on Friday, a few weeks earlier than most people probably expected it. I’ve been using it for a few months, and have to say it’s really solid. It’s got a faster response time to applications, it has some new features that I’ve found really useful, and it’s hard to beat the price of $29.

I think one of the features that people will really grow to use is the new Quicktime screen recording. You can check out a sample of it here.

This may become the default way that I explain how to do things to my mother or sisters when I can’t find a time to screen share over iChat with them.

Overall, to quote David Pogue, it’s a no brainer. Faster system, you gain back hard drive space, Time Machine continues to work seamlessly for your backups, and it costs about the same lunch does out here in California.
