Ira on Leopard

October 28th, 2007 by Ira

Mac OS 10.5 is finally out! That’s right Leopard is here and has defeated Tiger, well kind of. Here’s Ira’s thoughts…

Jason: What are you doing Ira?

IRA: Meowing ow mee MeoBook. (‘Working on the MacBook.)

Jason: What are you working on?

IRA: Leeoooow meeeow. (Leopard install.)

Jason: Wow, I heard that takes sometime to install.

IRA Meo, meeeooww me mee eo ee meeeoow meoww meow e meoow meeow. (Yup, especially if you do an upgrade rather than a clean install.)

Jason: So what’s new w/ Leopard?

IRA: Meeow’w e meow meow eo mee meoow. Meeows, Meow Meeeoww, Meoow meeoww, Meow meeoww, etc. etc. (There’s a shit load of new stuff. Spaces, Time Machine, Safari update, Mail update, etc. etc.)

Jason: Wow cool.

IRA: Mee Me meeow M’e mmeow meeoww meo Seeeow Mew’s meos! (But I think I’m gonna scratch out Steve Job’s eyes!)

Jason: What? Why?

IRA: ‘Meeow eo meeow meoow’w meowing meow! (‘Cause of course there’s fucking bugs!)

Jason: What’s wrong with Leopard?

IRA: Meow meeow eo ow, mee meownet meowwing meo mee meowed-ew. Me mee’w meo eo meowspace, Me meow meeows meow Me meoo eo meow meow. (Well first of all, the internet setting are way screwed-up. I can’t get to myspace, I got some kittens that I need to chat with.)

Jason: Really?!

IRA: Meo’w me meowing Georgia! (Don’t be telling Georgia!)

Jason: What?

IRA: Meo’w me e meowing meoc! (Don’t be a fucking narc!)

Jason: What else is wrong with Leopard?

IRA: Meo, meower meot -eo meo. Meoow meowes mee meowes. Meeow meo e meo meower. (Well, smaller shit – so far. Expose crashes and freezes. Things are a bit slower.)

Jason: That’s not good. I know how much you like to use Expose with OS X.

IRA: Meo meow, Me meow-tasked meow meower-moeker meow Meoow eo Meger. (For sure, I multi-tasked like mother-fucker with Expose on Tiger.)

More to come!
