[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 534768, member: 24160"] Don't know.... My MBP with a clean install of Leopard took 2 seconds longer to boot than Tiger did when machine was new. Doesn't feel that much different to me. It's not really Leopard's fault that your data is not important enough to you to have a backup system in place. Don't use the virtual desktop myself - am too slow and getting senile, can't keep track of more than one thing at a time. Think a lot of us agree that the old menu style operation by right clicking in Tiger was more user friendly than stacks. Coverflow, love it. You do have to allow it to draw them on the first scroll through, which is pretty darn quick on mine. And then have no issue at all flipping back and forth as fast as I can move my finger across the trackpad (though not as fast as it use to be) through pictures, documents, etc. on my MBP. Have no noise on my MBP either, zero, no difference between 10.4 and 10.5 at all. The above applies to the wife's Macbook also. Her machine got an Archive and Install rather than a clean install. First question I would ask, did you do the simple upgrade or the archive and install. There have been various issues surrounding simple installs. [/QUOTE]
