Everyone else seems to be getting it working so I don't know what the problem is.
I'm somewhat curious if my 16G flash drive just won't boot. My 4GB Cruzer does, but my 16G just sits at a black screen with the cursor flashing. I guess I'll try sticking syslinux on the 16GB stick and see if it boots at all.
Also iTunes 9 is a step backwards in almost every way... hurrrrr lets just keep on adding features that nobody cares about.
its a damn music player. keep it simple. itunes was the greatest around v6-v7. they need to pull a win7/osx10.6 on it: focus on the essence and make that greater.
Well, I've always liked the new grid view. I haven't bought them, but the digital LPs seem like a neat idea.Quote:

HAH I got it working. I forgot to partition the flash drive as GUID. :mad: I assumed restoring the image would do that, but it didn’t. It’s in the middle of installing right now.
Actually the new form seems nicer to me, cleaner if you will. Been using Snow Leopard since the Monday after its release. The biggest thing I was looking for is Exchange support and man is it good. It works better with Exchange 2007 then Outlook 2007 does :eek:. It picks up the outlook anywhere settings flawlessly, if it's setup and configured on your server properly.Quote:

A bonus also, just swapped out my main HDD to a 256GB SSD and the difference is insane... Even though it's only SATA, it runs circles around my old drive. Granted my old drive is a 500GB 5400RPM 2.5".

The size difference isn't much, is it really that big of a deal?
The 160GB hard drive on my late 2007 MBP is always about 20-30GB from being full so it made a difference for me. I was about to buy a larger hard drive, but the extra space I got prevented me from doing so.
That aside, 16GB for a fresh install (with iLife and everything, but still) was ridiculous so it's only right that they stripped out some junk.
