So far I've only got a few complaints.
The Mail application has some flaws. When downloading an included
attachment I like to choose my own folder. That works, but when I go
to do it again I have to choose it again. Also if I hit the save
button in the email itself, it doesn't. Or at least I have no clue if
it did and where it went. Once you hit the save button in a mail it
doesn't give you a window telling you where it's saving it, or even if
it's saving it. I've had to use the drop down menu and then "save
attachments". For this reason I've held off putting Leopard on my
mothers machine, also a G5 iMac. She teaches collage english classes
online and receives papers as attachments every day. If she can't find
them it's going to be a major problem.
The iChat thing that allows you to put different backgrounds in your
video I can't use. My iChat windows don't have the buttons they show
in the demo. I'm running a G5 iMac. I checked for an iChat upgrade on
the Apple site and there wasn't one that applied. I have 4.0 (601).
The very small book that came with my upgrade shows the different
benefits of Leopard but doesn't really explain how to use them. I'm
still trying to figure out spaces. I want spaces to continue to run,
but also want to have two things running on the screen at the same
time. I haven't figured out how to do that yet, and the book is no help.
On the positive side I have surfed sites that wouldn't work in the
past that now do with Safari.
The new finder option to view docs in a panorama scroll type thing is
very handy and cool. But I had to manually add the option to enlarge
and see the document. That doesn't come standard in a window.
I don't know if it's the OS or if it's the new Safari 3.0, but pages
I usually surf to now load much faster. Wapp, they're in my face very
quickly.
Some third party apps are having a few problems. Graphic converter
for some reason gives a grey image when opening multiple images. It
will show the image if I resize it but then goes back to grey when
hitting save. The image is still there, just not visible during the
save. I realize this isn't Apples fault.

It's been almost a week since Leopard was released. How are people
liking (or not liking) it? Slate's got an article on it today:
