"i decided to switch to mac after seeing the pretty new package and now have buyers' remorse," a customer wrote in august on apple's online discussion forum. apple is advising customers to update their machines either through the company's automatic update mechanism or a download from the web site. apple heavily markets its computers as simpler and more user friendly than computers running microsoft windows, but lately apple has had to deal with its own problems. last month, the company posted a fix on its web site for a serious flaw that caused its mac computers to seize up when users attempted to upgrade to leopard, officially known as os x 10.5. leopard was released oct. 26. subscribe to rss »  e-mail »  print »  discuss »  del.icio.us »  digg »  slashdot »  reprint this article »  download top reports advertisement career center ready to take that job and shove it?open | close search function: information technology engineering keyword(s): state: post your resume employers area news & features blogs & forums career resources browse by: state | city sponsor recent job postings featured jobs: sunoco, inc. seeking oracle dba / developer in philadelphia, pa cast software, inc. seeking sr implementation consultant in new york, ny monterey peninsula college seeking it instructor in monterey, ca hayes group seeking computer specialist in alexandria, va icom america, inc. seeking software engineer in bellevue, wa for more great jobs, career-related news, features and services, please visit our "career center. career news salaries expected to increase for it professionals in 2008 robert half technology, an it staffing firm, released its annual salary guide for 2008 and the predictions are promising. axcelis cuts jobs, posts loss after exiting one market -- and experiencing a tough quarter -- axcelis technologies inc. has moved to reduce its headcount. more articles from our career center related stories apple acknowledges that some imacs freeze up blog: 6 problems with mac os x leopard the real steve jobs introduces new imacs and software apple posts fix for leopard 'blue screen of death' related white papers a product strategy tip - surviving product commoditization an innovation imperative building innovation into your marketing dna roundtrip traceability: enhancing quality in the software development lifecycle a product management tip: get more product management from your product managers hyperconnectivity: an unstoppable force of change for unified communications specialty resources view all briefing centers featured microsite   subscription infoapply for a free 52-week subscription to informationweek (a $199 value) last name: first name: title: company name: city: business address: zip: state: select state alabama alaska arizona arkansas california colorado connecticut delaware dist. of columbia florida georgia hawaii idaho illinois indiana iowa kansas kentucky louisiana maine maryland massachusetts michigan minnesota mississippi missouri montana nebraska nevada new hampshire new jersey new mexico new york north carolina north dakota ohio oklahoma oregon pennsylvania rhode island south carolina south dakota tennessee texas utah vermont virgin islands virginia washington west virginia wisconsin wyoming alberta nova scotia british columbia ontario manitoba prince edward is. new brunswick quebec newfoundland saskatchewan northwest terr. nunavut yukon territory american samoa guam marshall isl. micronesia palau puerto rico u.s. minor outlying isl. northern mariana isl. armed frcs africa armed frcs americas armed frcs canada armed frcs erp ae armed frcs mdl est ae armed frcs pcfc ap other email address: note: offer valid for u.s., u.s. possessions, & canada only              news windows security mobility internet software hardware cio central research & tools careers about us contact us current issue back issues white papers briefing centers site map advertise media kit editorial calendar privacy your california privacy rights other cmp sites: informationweek germany network computing dark reading light reading techweb intelligent enterprise byte & switch internet evolution bmighty small biz resource insurance & technology wall street & technology bank systems & technology terms of service | copyright © 2007 cmp media llc, all rights reserved.
