Snow Leopard, the latest version of Apple's Mac OS X, is an evolutionary step that speeds up common tasks and tightens the fit and finish of the now entirely 64-bit based operating system. At $29 for a single-user upgrade from OS X 10.5, IT managers should put the Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6) upgrade on the fast track, keeping in mind an asterisk I'm adding next to the much ballyhooed built-in Microsoft Exchange support: What has not been widely reported is that Snow Leopard works only with Exchange Server 2007 Service Pack 1 Rollup 4. That aside, I upgraded to Snow Leopard with only minor hitches in application recognition.

The user interface, performance and built-in application refinements help ensure that the update causes little impact on IT management resources for training or installation.

All of the systems were running the Mac OS X Leopard (10.5) operating system. Based on my tests, IT managers should concentrate upgrade preparation on application recognition.
To be clear, recognition is different than compatibility. All of the products I'm about to discuss are compatible with, and function when running on, Snow Leopard. For example, the Real Player Downloader, a down load management utility, was listed as unrecognized in the Dock on the Mac mini.

Similarly, on the Mac Pro, both VLC, a media player, and YemuZip, a file compression utility, were listed as unrecognized. But by simply going to Finder and then running the applications, the recognized product icons were added to the Dock. On a related note, Apple has a of 12 software applications that are restricted during installation and migration, and seven applications that are restricted from opening. These applications are known by Apple to have incompatibilities that can cause the operating system to quit unexpectedly. These applications will be moved to an Incompatible Software folder on the hard drive, so IT managers should do a quick check to ensure that currently used applications are not on the list. The Big Picture According to Apple officials, nearly 900 components in the OS were rewritten to move Mac OS X to an entirely 64-bit technology base. This removes application memory barriers, and Apple engineers have ensured that IT managers need to use only one version of the operating system to run both 64- and 32-bit applications.
