Hello, this my opinion, it's a bit strongly worded, I apologize for that, but free country and all that. For you Apple guys, I hope you can forward this to engineering, QA, steve jobs, whoever, let's fix 10.5!!!!!
90+ days in, still having lots hassles with leopard desktop and server. I think it's the worst Mac OS since System 8, and it works about as good as Gil's idea for Rhapsody beta 1. The open source stuff is disappointing, php ships off, typical mods and libs are not there, (GD, ImageMagick, plus the dynamic SO's) fink and macports helps but I still prefer Ubuntu for web dev and deployment. The security model is more aggravating than Vista, more warnings and cert alerts than air raid sirens in a Lebanese discotheque, way more than Vista, WTF!! Microsoft could have a field day mocking the Apple ads and if this doesn't get fixed in 10.5.3, I KNOW A LOT OF ADVERTISING EXECUTIVES AND YOUTUBE VIDEOS WILL BE ON THE WAY. Wiki and CalDAV are totally lame. Server admin trims DNS zone files like rose thorns on the florist's floor waiting to bite back. (What the hell is this stupid example.com stuff?) AFP has dealbreaker bugs and you know it, that is just shooting yourself but you've been doing that for a while. Hello ExtremezIP! RADIUS got reinvented as some sort of airport technology, dude that is wrong. 802.11x on the client side is pretty much unusable. The GUI changes in both completely suck, what happened to Print Center and Internet Connect, they were not liabilities in the least. It's a bit speedier, dslocal was a great add, congrats, but that's all. It stinks! Not well thought out, definitely not tested, cause for serious concern. Please fix, please advise, what can I do to help?
10.4.7 Universal was an awesome stable system, why can't you do the same thing again, just better?
