NienorGT Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Other than the Multicore/64Bit/OpenCL triple combo, the NTFS write is the biggest plus to me so far.

.Neo Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Notice that on this new Activity Monitor, the Aqua-style menu for "All Processes" has been replaced. It's been like that since the first leaked build. I'm really hoping they'll replace the remaining Aqua elements as well. The icon slider looks like crap in the Finder window.

mattmatik Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 I like the printer driver downloads. Should have been there a long time ago seeing as how the install disk comes with a ton of drivers anyway. Definitely a plus.

The icon slider looks like crap in the Finder window. I know, but I wasn't sure everyone noticed. It's a good sign, though. It's time to phase out Aqua.

Quillz Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Wow... Being able to read/write to NTFS drives would be really useful. Would allow for full interaction with other PCs on the home network.

Quillz Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 You don't need to be able to read/write NTFS to interact with network connected computers. True, but I'd be able to actually use external hard drives on Windows-based computers on the network.

furby Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 You don't need to be able to read/write NTFS to interact with network connected computers. I know this is offtopic, But how come you can write to shared (ntfs) but not directly?

richardsim7 Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 I know this is offtopic, But how come you can write to shared (ntfs) but not directly? I think it's because the computer sharing that NTFS drive technically does the writing ;) -Rich- Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/642366-mac-os-x-snow-leopard-discussion/page/15/#findComment-590602870 Share on other sites More sharing options...

.Neo Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 Hello: http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/4133/snow/SnowGrid.mov Yeah, I noticed that as well. Here's hoping Apple won't pull it out at the last minute like they did with Leopard. Something I still miss from the Leopard beta's was the ability to create a Stack by dropping a group of files, folders or applications onto the Dock. That way an "Applications" Stack would actually sit in the applications section of the Dock and without the need to create or use a physical folder.

+Frank B. Subscriber² Posted February 22, 2009 Subscriber² Share Posted February 22, 2009 Awesome. That is certainly something I of could used in Leopard. It's nice eye candy, but not something I'm going to use. For me the list view for Stacks is perfect.
