Speed improvements in core features, price, some neat tweaks
Some might question having to pay for it, needs third party application updates for full benefits to come through
Wed like to think that Apple was in the position with Leopard to apply an "if it aint broke, dont fix it" mentality and thats what Snow Leopard feels like. It makes Leopard run like you think it should be running. For us, thats enough, we like the...

Generally faster than Leopard; supports Exchange; rudimentary malware checking; most applications run in 64-bit mode; improvements to Exposé and Dock.
Lackluster QuickTime Player update; many features won’t truly be exploited until Mac hardware evolves. Min specs: Mac computer with an Intel processor; 1GB of memory; 5GB of available disk space; DVD drive for installation.
We're glad Apple put the brakes on marketing-driven feature bloat. Going in and overhauling the foundations and frameworks is a great idea - and something Microsoft is partly doing with Windows 7 in an attempt to woo disgruntled Vista and satisfied XP...
Big performance improvements, Forward thinking switch to 64bit, Painless installation
Incompatibility with applications and plugins, QuickTime changes not all positive, No upgrade path for legacy users

Fast. Elegant. Superb suite of built-in basic apps. Easy to use for those familiar with previous versions. Silky-smooth upgrading for existing users.
A few minor interface glitches. Lacks the range of applications and compatible hardware available for Windows.
The latest version of Apples Mac operating system, OS X 10.6 (codenamed Snow Leopard), is Apples fastest, most functional, and feature-rich operating system yet....
