"Great OS Upgrade, for an already great OS"
It is a great upgrade for an already great OS. No viruses, no crashes (except for Microsoft Office for Mac, occasionally). I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT THE CNET REVIEWER WOULD LIST AS A CON THE $29 UPGRADE FEE!!!! Talk about being biased! Why wouldn't CNet

PROS: Easy, clean, no brainer install. Upgrades from Tiger or Leopard within minutes. Excellent new features, great UI, implements 64 bit tech for new apps, small HD space required.
CONS: Not one so far. I've read several complaints of features not working, but I can honestly say I haven't experienced one yet.

PROS: To me Snow Leopard has no noticeable differences from Leopard. The only thing new of note, in my opinion, is the ability to send movies from Quicktime to iTunes (at the time I am writing this, I haven't tried it yet, but I am looking forward to it)
CONS: Snow Leopard eliminated several printers at my school from my printer list. When I tried to re-add these printers I couldn't see them. I need to type in their IP addresses manually, unfortunately, no one knows what their IP addresses are?
