For once, Apple hasn't oversold their new OS version. It also gives
the lie to those who think Apple will soon be giving up on
building computers. The new technologies in Snow Leopard are
extremely forward looking and, even so, they don't interfere with
operations on computers and with software that don't support
them (except for Power PCs, which are history). This alone is an
amazing accomplishment.
As for WindowShade, it took some time for it to be updated for
Tiger compatibility and even longer for Leopard. The same goes
for other Unsanity haxies. This is not Apple's fault. So those of us
who use them can expect to wait again. In the meantime, if I start
using Expose up to it's potential, I may never need WindowShade
again. The same goes for the Dock in relation to FruitMenu. How
many Mac users still pine for OS 9? The Chooser anyone? I think
I'll use the interregnum to learn to use OS X properly.
