When Am I Going To Get Snow Leopard?

Snow Leopard is a interesting update to Mac OS X. It brings better performance and some new features to the table. Plus that 29 dollar price tag is really attractive. I also like that you get 7 GB of space back after install. The only thing standing between me and Snow Leopard is when. When am I going to get it? I think that I would love snow leopard, but do I need it right now?

The first thing stopping me from getting Snow Leopard now is compatibility. For the time some programs are not compatible with it. Some of the programs I have are currently not fully compatible. The good thing about this thing stopping me from getting snow leopard is that it is a temporary issue. Once updates are made compatibility will quickly no longer be a issue. Plus The programs that are incompatible for the time are not programs that I use on a regular basis.

Compatibility is not that only thing keeping me from getting Snow Leopard right now. The other thing stopping me is wither or not it is worth it. Yea sure it is only 20 dollars, but still does it include enough stuff? I have heard that it shows better performance over leopard which is awesome! Also I don’t know how I could turn down 7 GB of recovered hard drive space, But isn’t that about it. Really all it includes is better performance and some software tweaks.

So should I get it now? Should I get it later? Or should I never get it? When I go over everything I am not going to get it now. I have decided that I am going to wait a few weeks to get it. That way by than it will have little compatibility issues and I have really nothing to complain about it. This way I will get the benefits of snow leopard with little or no side effects and I won’t be accused of being caught up in the hype.

Snow Leopard looks amazing and I think once I get it I will love it, but being a earlier adopter can suck and thats what I want to avoid.
