WHY IS THERE STILL NOT A SNOW LEOPARD SPECIFIC CATEGORY YET?

Feedback Type:  Commentary

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Over One Year

Recommend Product: YES

I HAVE, AS HAVE OTHERS, SENT MESSAGES TO THE FOLKS HERE AT VERSIONTRACKER THAT A SNOW LEOPARD SPECIFIC CATEGORY IS DESPERATELY NEEDED.

SNOW LEOPARD IS A SIGNIFICANT UPGRADE...A POINT UPGRADE IF YOU WILL...JUST LIKE PANTHER, TIGER AND LEOPARD (10.3, 10.4, 10.5 RESPECTIVELY). SNOW LEOPARD IS 10.6. SIMPLE MATH. DO IT.

WHAT IS THE HOLD-UP?

ESPECIALLY IN THE CASE OF SYSTEM UTILITIES, THIS COULD RESULT IN NOT JUST CONFUSION, BUT POSSIBLY SOMETHING MORE SERIOUS AND POTENTIALLY DAMAGING.

COME ON VT. I'M BEGINNING TO WONDER WHO'S RUNNING THE SHOP. MOE, LARRY OR CURLEY?

WHY IS THERE STILL NOT A SNOW LEOPARD SPECIFIC CATEGORY YET? - Titanium06

Problems in VT... Number of downloads (all versions), Requirements, send updates, change icons and screenshots...etc.
The fusion VT / cnet is difficult.

Dude, calm down. Onyx is a FREE application and Snow Leopard is complicated. Besides, there is a Beta available.

I suggest, JAS 66, that you're missing the point being made in the original feedback. This isn't about this one specific software, but that VersionTracker hasn't provided for the stipulation of Snow Leopard (v10.6) in their Operating System Requirements section for anything in their database. Some developers had included the applicability of Snow Leopard in their comments in other sections (as is the case here with OnyX where the developer has had to use the Additional Requirements to refute the v10.5 cite in the Operating System Requirements), but--it appears--they can't get that fact (if applicable) to show in the System Requirements section. And pending some explanation by CNET/VersionTracker (e.g., that they've given up changing anything in this Web presentation as they're switching over to the CNET TechTracker app that's in beta), all those of us who use the VersionTracker Web site are left without a clear indication from developers as to whether the Operating System Requirements are correct and complete. (Even their own listing for that CNET TechTracker has to "augment" the Operating System Requirements to include v10.6.)

I agree with the earlier posters that this is a very sad state of affairs.

WHY? Because cnet blows. - Obee Juan

There's just no excuse for cnet to not have a category for 10.6. I mean really... how long would it take to add it? 5 minutes? 10? This site is becoming increasingly irrelevant. Might be time to move on.
