"Apple Banks on OSX To Restore Its Image As Software Innovator"

huh?

I understand the marketing importance of having a robust version of mac:OFFICE but I hope it doesn't compromise the OpSys in any way.

Overall it was a positive article on Apple's new OS though slow performance
on older Macs was mentioned.

Has anyone heard of this 'Tweaking', or is it just PR?
