10.5

My copy of Mac OS X 10.5 has arrived!

Time to geek out.

Initial post-install impressions:

- Application launch feels faster (haven't timed it).
- The VPN client we use for work doesn't work (although the kexts load just fine)
- The installer moved aside /usr/local/X11R6 instead of deleting/upgrading it (which is odd, since it was from the Apple X11 install)
- The installer appears to have trashed my crontab (fortunately I have a backup).
- You can't specify an AirportDisk as the backup target for Time Machine (which is a disappointment, hopefully that feature will return soonish), so I had to move my disk from the AirPort Extreme to connect to my mac.
- Mail disabled GPGMail, I haven't attempted to determine if it's just being paranoid (like with Mail 2) or if GPGMail will need to be updated ("defaults write com.apple.mail EnableBundles -bool true" and renaming ~/Library/Mail/Bundles (Disabled) to ~/Library/Mail/Bundles allows the plugin to load, but it doesn't appear to work).
