Snow Leopard on the MacBook Aluminium Unibody (2.4 Ghz C2D, 4Gb, Nvidia 9400M)

Hi, Mark. I was sure you were Dutch:)) Then your last name confirmed it. Anyway, I have the same laptop ( aluminium Mac Book), I also upgraded to S.L., few times, and I had quite some trouble: the laptop does not wake up fine after sleeping/hibernating, sometimes the boot fails, the wireless card is not always responsive and kernel panics do show up rarely. Currently, I am back to 10.5.6, which i by far more stable an quicker. What are your experiences with SL?

Dutch - guilty!

Your problems with SL are strange.

I did have some 'weird pausing' with browsing on 10.5 and on snow Leopard this all disappeared. SL is all in all a super solid experience for me.

Perhaps there are some programs installed that cause a blotched upgrade? You could try a fresh install of SL as this works too...

And if you also experience some the problems on 10.5 you may want to take the Laptop back to Apple as your troubles may be an overheating/hardware issue :(

Thanks for the quick reply. For me, the experience is the opposite: 10.5.6 is perfect, S.L. introduced few annoyances ( major one is comp. wont wake up after sleep, and every now and then boot freezes). I tried different installs as well, including clean ones, so no third party programs. Well. I'm fine like this for now, 25 pounds shorter, though.

Vrolijke Kerst Dagen!

That's a shame. Well thank god Leopard will of course be supported for a long time to come.

You still could / should take it back to Apple though as the device does not perform like it should!

Vrolijk kerstfeest en de beste wensen voor 2010!

I don't have a Mac computer but you get the new operating system and that's cool.

I think my favorite part of this video starts at :

1:41 ... face expression
