The question is, how many Mac users are still taking a
wait and see
attitude towards it? I just *FINALLY* upgraded from Mac OS 8.6/G4 to 9.1
*after* I bought the release version of Mac OS X. I used Mac OS X for a
total of about a week after it came out. Once a Mac OS X native version of
eXodus is released I'll give OSX a serious thought. The real problem I see
for it is that there are currently no Adobe products except Acrobat Reader
that run on it native.
I am on another list that while informal, is made up of hard core mac
supporters and developers, and the consensus is that they play with each
release, but don't expect it to be ready for prime time for another 6
months or so.
For myself I am setting at 8.6 as my most advanced install and have system
running that I use back to 7.5.3 on powermacs and farther on older systems.
Moving back and forth between various OS releases is pretty painless too.
