Snow Leopard Rocks!
Strengths: more stable, faster, new features
Weakness: can't be used on computers with PPC CPU's, must have Intel chips
This is an EXCELLENT OS, the best in the world currently (as of 6/2010). If you have a Mac and it has Intel core 2 duo or better and 2 Gig RAM, this absolutely rocks and you should get it! Very fast, more online and WIFI built in security protections than previous systems. Faster than previous systems and more efficient, just plain excellent!
