Buggiest OS? This is where I have a problem with current reporting. There have been few bugs with Leopard and if you look at the reporting as a whole it is clear that the number of people effected is very small as a percentage. For those people the issues are undoubtedly real and serious, but look at the big picture before you make a statement like that, please.

The last Mac OS to come out had a bug that prevented many people from connecting to the coporate VPNs they need to be productive, among others.

The OS prior to that crippled many people's firewire external hard drives - a technology that Apple has long championed.

No OS launch is perfect, but considering the percent of users effected and the record breaking numbers of people to buy the update early on you get 2 numbers that are BOTH larger than previous OS launches. More people with problems (as a number maybe not as a percent I don't honestly know) AND many many more people using the new OS successfully. Did it have bugs? Sure. Is it the "buggiest"? If you take a look at all the reports out there, I think the answer is no.
