Apple released MacOSX new version 10.6, code name "Snow Leopard".

Refined 64bit support and Grand Central Dispatch apparently make user experience faster than ever.

It is worth to upgrade if you use 64bit cpu. Even if your CPU is core solo or core duo, it is better to install Snow Leopard.

As Apple announced before its release, Safari renders web page faster. I feel like 3 or 4 times faster than same version on 10.5.

Apple excluded Rosetta , backend program for non MacOSX native application like Carbon based app. You need choose Rosetta on custom install dialog.

"Screen shot (スクリーンショット)" added to file name of screen shot.

This is just a release of refined upgrade version. So you can not find any impressive feature in this version, but it's only $29 (3300JPY).
