I found it went faster, about 30 mins, when I did a clean install. It's sort of more accessible. I mean they improved the internet quite a lot. But I would argue that finder and iTunes were more better integrated with voiceover under leopard. They really let cursor tracking get all mucked up.
Oh well, I was more prepared for this transfering from leopard to snow leopard than I was going from tiger to leopard. It's just that things change when apple does upgrades. I guess there are things that get added like braille that make the system ultimately a step forward, but then they go and break things that worked really well in the prior system which leaves one wondering if it is really a step forward. I guess ultimately it might be a step forward. I like the new antonio voice in the castellian spanish package from acapela.
