I am in the process of upgrading (actually doing a clean install) of Snow Leopard on my iMac. There are still a number of programs that are less than fully compatible. I would be inclined to advise most users to wait a couple of weeks so those applications can catch up.

I downloaded the new app from Simplify Media last week for viewing photos from you iPhoto library on your iPhone. Simply Media for photos uses the same Mac or PC application as Simplify Media for your music files. On the iPhone, it is a separate application.

I did not anticipate this book to be a heavy read and I was correct. However, if you are a Kindle 2 (or even a first generation Kindle) owner, this book might be a good one to add to your collection. The price on Amazon was decent ($4.99 I think) and I found some new [...]
