Bob “Dr. Mac” LeVitus starts by talking about his newest book, Mac OS X Snow Leopard For Dummies, and some of the less-recognized, but most useful, features that Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard brings to the table. Bob and host Chuck Joiner then shift to a few issues they are experiencing, including iCal publishing, DVD burning and the odd hardware driver update, before taking on the Flash upgrade that is needed to bring users up to the current version. Bob also provides his thoughts on who shouldn’t upgrade to Snow Leopard, sheds some light on the 32-bit vs. 64-bit question. Too good not to talk about, Bob also advances his theories on the meaning of the tag line for Apple’s 9/9/09 event.

You would expect The MacNotables to deliver some unique perspectives on the release of Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard…and you would be right. Adam Engst, Andy Ihnatko and Ted Landau join Chuck Joiner to discuss why Apple let Snow Leopard loose so much earlier than expected, and the implications for your decision on when to upgrade. The crew also dig into the installation and question some of the default options, explain why Apple’s list of incompatible software isn’t as long as you might expect, unveil their favorite changes, and cast an eye to the future of the Mac OS.
