I was thinking of upgrading to snow leopard. thought it might be some good info for anyone still using leopard if the snow leopard users found it any better for gamesalad usage.

    I am still on Leopard 10.5. But I do also have an iMac on 10.6.

    No problem with GameSalad on Snow Leopard, but there is a issue with old type 1 fonts in some applications like Flash. Sites I designed with 10.5 and earlier now have expanded leading issues. I have to move to an older machine to export .swf from Flash now. MAJOR problem.

    No probs on either but I am a bit more used to the nuances of non-snow.

    Two of the main things that changed when I upgraded are: Folder Stacks could go into subfolders and it speeded up my macbook a lot.

    I really recommend upgrading and the price is cheap.

    I'm using Snow Leopard on an iMac and I'm happy I upgraded as it was cheap and my machine actually runs faster due to improved code. Of course you have to have an Intel Mac to use it. My other Mac, a 5 year old G5 Power PC is about to become an antique as it can no longer be upgraded ~sob~sob~

    +1 for snow leopard.

    I am. Nothing's really pushing me to upgrade. I know I will eventually, but increased speed isn't that big of an incentive yet.

    Also gives you back between 5-10 gig if I remember right.

    Thumbs up for Snow Leopard. It wasn't expensive to upgrade, is faster and I reclaimed a lot of space.

    Im using leopard...and I'm a bit scared to upgrade to snow leopard, because I have a lot of software I bought, even the cheaper ones, that I'm afraid some may not work ..

    Im on an Imac 24" inches mate screen, the last white model that was made...

    The change wasn't so different, so I don't think it affects older software like that.

    Was the upgrade smooth for those who upgraded?

    I want to rebuild from scratch (i.e. a clean OS install) but don't really have the time. Wondering if the upgrade was painless for a non-clean install...

    (yeah, and new to Macs so forgive it there is only one method or I got the terms incorrect)
