Mac OS X 10.3.7: Favorable reports
There are several reports of smooth upgrade processes, and improved operation after installing Mac OS X 10.3.7.
Ira Altschiller writes "10.3.7 is the best of the recent updates for me. Everything seems faster -- the sluggish applications launch some have reported has not occurred -- in fact, programs are opening faster. Login is about the same. Based upon about two hours of working with it so far."
David Oshel writes "I'm not unhappy with the new update -- my iBook seems a bit snappier than usual since installing 10.3.7 (combo). Dialup seems a lot smoother, almost as solid as Linux, but sounds still drop volume levels."
Mike Charbonneau writes "No more fuzzy video in the Canvas or Viewer (in FCP) now that 10.3.7 has been applied."
Finally, Alan Somers adds "I have a PDF document that has a watermark. When I printed out the document from the Preview app in 10.3.6, the watermark came out with very jagged edges even though it appeared OK on-screen (the rest of the document text and graphics printed out fine). I had pretty much concluded that it was a problem with the ESP Ghostscript driver I was using. When the 10.3.7 update came out, the release notes listed a fix for printing "shaded text" in PDFs to raster printers. With anticipation, I applied the 10.3.7 update, printed the document again, and the entire document printed clearly (including the watermark)."

Mind you I have not noticed any improvements either!
