Advantages: Looks good, Easy to set up, Unix Based

Disadvantages: Needs a lot of memory

I have just recived the new Apple ibook 2001 and shipped with it was OSX. Having read rave reviews from other sites I could barely contain my excitement when I realised that my ibook had been shipped with it. There was no way that I was going to start out with 9.1 when I had OS X sat there!

I got the disk in got ready to install and could not belive how good the layout and graphics were on the actual installation everything was clear and the colour scheme was fantastic. It was a little bit slow but then I put that down to the fact I only have 128MRAM which is the minimum required.

Once I had it installed I had to try and work out where exactly everything was because the layout is very different to OS 9.1 its gone more like Windows 2000. Like when you to a clean install of any OS I had to change screen resolution, layouts, font sizes etc....When I was finally happy with the layout it was time to start installing software, there is not that much about at the moment but I downloaded just about everything! A few apps were beta so they are slightly prone to problems but I am sure that very soon they will be working better than any software on 9.1 I think I'll need to upgrade my memory first though!!!!
