i have spotlight, bluetoot, airport etc all shut off..i have no search functions..i need fast processor speeds... crap always running in the background slows down my sessionsThe "Spaces" multiple desktop is something I rely on a lot on my little 13.3 inch screen. The performance is a little better... just be aware that Spotlight will like to index the drive on startup and they have fixed that since they released the newest upgrade. Microsoft Office 08 sucks. Crashes for no reason and is slow sometimes.
i just went to Digi's DUC .... i ain't switchin at least till 2009..too many quirks..my system is as solid as a rock and does everything i needI liked Tiger a lot and like Leopard even more. Runs a lot smoother and the small stuff like quick view, spaces, and stacks just make everything a lot easier. My roommate's running Pro Tools too and is still on 10.4.9. I know a few others that have run LE with no problems on 10.5 and others that are pulling their hair out over it... Seems to be a case-to-case thing.
