My list of Snow Leopard gripes

• Restart issue

• No character palette icon in toolbar

• I have to boot up into my restore partition on my external drive to clone the restore installation on my internal drive to the main partition.

I'm keeping Leopard on the external partition for the time being.

For character palette:

System Preferences - Language & Text - Input Sources tab - place a check next to: Keyboard & Character Viewer at top of left hand box and put a check in Show input menu in menu bar

Thank you!

I forgot one: having to run Safari in 32-bit mode to run my ad blocker.

This will be a problem for the foreseeable future until devs start making 64-bit versions of their software. Honestly though, you won't gain much (if anything) in terms of performance running Safari as a 64-bit app anyway.

Also, the lack of 64-bit screen savers.

I can think of no reason that a screensaver would need to be 64-bit - not unless it was doing on-the-fly 3D rendering or something equally memory intensive. And of course, you wouldn't want a screen saver doing that type of thing for long stretches of time.

anyway i think these problems will be solved in the future updates

Alright, alright... I get it.
