OS X Leopard (specifically 10.5.6) on my school-issued laptop.

Work Computers: Mac OS X 10.4.11
ReplyDeleteThe good: the teacher computers we received this year are very pretty (Titanium iMac).
The bad: Most of the computers available for students are "blueberry" macs. Remember those?
The ugly: the very pretty teacher computers are so locked down (software) that they are more like over-glorified "blueberries" than actual tools.
