Piece of unreliable junk 
- Version: 10.6.1, 10/31/2009 03:32AM PST

On top of everything keeps forgetting system preferences - I need to reconfigure trackpad preferences between 3 to 10 times a DAY. The crappy OS NEVER goes to sleep by itself - if I forget to put it to sleep good chances that I'll come back to a turned off computer with 0% battery. I am really getting tired of 10.6 and seriously start thinking of upgrading to 7 - and I mean M$ 7 !
Bluetooth mice ... - Version: 10.6.1, 10/25/2009 07:36AM PST

This is my second comment on 10.6.1 - the horrible ... I have a M$ bluetooth mouse as well as apple bluetooth keyboard. Both lose connection all the time - of course when the computer goes to sleep - but sometimes even when it doesn't. The bad news are that while in the bluetooth menu for the keyboard there is a "connect" option, for the mice there is only the option "open mouse preferences" where you need to re-pair the mouse in spite of the fact that the mouse was paired previously. I tried to remove the mouse and re-pair it, tried after restart with cntrl-P-R, it just doesnt work. I would love to blame M$ for that, but I know that the mouse worked nicely under 10.5, so its clearly Apple's fault and not M$.

We are all prone to the hurrah regarding any software upgrade..what we rarely acknowledge is that it is an addiction of sorts. So it was that when the Snow Leopard finally grazed into view and at such a reasonable cost, it was a must-have.
A quick 30 minute installation and off we go...but where? Fortunately, all programs seem to be running, but day after day, minute after minute, the search for something from SL is turning out to be bust. The machine does NOT run faster, restarts do not happen faster, in fact, as far as I can tell, there is no difference. Now, it should be noted that I personally don't use many of the so called features because they seem like odd little tricks invented to keep people interested, those would be stacks, spaces, storage, stuff and any other single word name Apple can throw at any fairly useless trick. But for an Apple user of decades, these so called upgrade is simply a lie.
