Hi,

This is my first week using leopard and I'm amaze by the GUI but it still
have some issues. While I'm hooked to the office network, some other G5 with
leopard (all Mac are upgrade from 10.4) have problems with networking from
mac to mac and also from mac to the only PC on the office. The only thing
that fix that is the classic RESTART, why? Aren't we used to mock from the
windows world for doing that?

Well, it just a tough. By the way, english is not my native language so
excuse any crime I did with it.

Carlos
