New Macbook Pro + Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard = Ludicrous Speed!

Today is the day when Apple adds Snow Leopard to its online stores around the globe, and after testing 10.6 for a few months now I can highly recommend the upgrade, especially at the low low price of $29, or £25 (not sure how that currency conversion worked out!).

Tested on a 2008 13″ Unibody MacBook as well as the latest 2009 15″ Unibody MacBook Pro, the speed increase slightly different but equally significant and noticeable throughout the system, from start-up to any software you wish to use.

Add to that several UI changes to clean up the experience or make Expose even more useful, allowing cross-system drag’n'drop via the app icons on the dock, just to name one example.

The developer versions had a few kinks here and there but now in the final version these will all be sorted out.

Ludicrous speed, commander!
Are you sure, Sir?
Y..es, YES!

Pre-order now, shipping 28 August 2009. Enjoy. :)
