Comment Still seems buggy, stay away (Score 1) 208
I just installed this on my 12" PB and repaired permissions.
The update seems very buggy overall. I have encountered the following problems so far:
- startup time is very long, with very windows-like behavior (i.e. desktop draws very slowly on startup and menus draw bit by bit instead of popping up all at once like before)
- iTunes skips horribly on files that played fine before
- Mail.app causes system to freeze up momentarily (spinning beach balls galore)
- system feels more sluggish and unstable overall.
I ran top to try to see what the problem was, but I could not see anything obvious. It seems like there is some very bad code somewhere in the update though. I am trying to decide if I should 'downgrade' back to 10.2.6 or just suck it up for a while and wait for 10.3.
Not recommended.
