Prepping Your Mac for Snow Leopard
The Mac world is really heating up with anticipation for the upcoming Snow Leopard release, due this Friday. LifeHacker wrote up a great guide on how to prepare your Mac for the Snow Leopard install, including tips on cleaning up your existing 10.5 installation and backing up your current Mac OS X install. I’ll probably just upgrade my existing 10.5 install, although having a fresh, clean, and snappy installation is mighty appealing. If you haven’t ordered Snow Leopard yet, you can get Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard from Amazon for $24.99, which is at a 14% discount on the Apple Store offering.
good thing the new apple operating system isn’t as rare as the actual snow leopard, with only 6,000 left in the wild. we’d have some pretty bitter mac fans. i found this really funny article on apple OS names over here: http://onthebutton.wordpress.com/2009/08/26/apple-snow-leopard/
