Musings of a Marketing Maven

Our Leop­ard 5-pack arrived today, ready for instal­la­tion on our Macs. The Mac geek dis­cus­sion boards have been full of cau­tion­ary tales, so I’ve backed up my Mac­Book Pro and will test com­pat­i­bil­ity there before installing on any other Macs.

It will be inter­est­ing to learn how Leop­ard com­pares to Tiger (Mac OS X 10.5 ver­sus 10.4.9) — and how the over­all expe­ri­ence com­pares to Win­dows Vista on my PC notebook.

I’m par­tic­u­larly curi­ous to see how the new UI lends itself to orga­niz­ing doc­u­ments, appli­ca­tions, emails, etc., by project (or in my case, client/project). If what I’m imag­in­ing is true, this could be a very use­ful way of sim­pli­fy­ing the Mac work­space at times when we’re work­ing on mul­ti­ple con­cur­rent client projects.

And if I’m wrong, it will have added need­less complexity.
