[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 903969, member: 24098"] Honestly, the exact same thing happened with Leopard. It wasn't until 10.5.2 until it really became rock solid. This is most likely due to Apple's beta testing process. Unlike Microsoft, Apple tends only to release their betas to a handful of developers initially and then eventually to the larger developer community (usually within 6 months of release). But that's just a tiny microcosm of the Mac-using community. It's not until it reaches the masses that they start to see real compatibility issues and bugs. Snow Leopard is really quite stable for such an early incarnation when installed on a clean system. In my experience, most of the issues people are seeing are related to third party software, particularly those programs that add kernel extensions and have supporting daemons. And of course, if you're not the kind of person who can tolerate any sort of weirdness, by all means, wait a few months for things to shake out. [/QUOTE]
