First things first (you’ve probably already gotten this far)

username/password• Quota manager will alert you of your
available disk space. Click “Thanks”• Your quota is the space allotted to
you on the GSLIS file server

Many names, the same thing
• Mac OS > OS X > 10.6 = Snow Leopard 10.7 = Lion
10.8 = Mountain Lion
10.5 = Leopard

What about Mountain Lion?
• 10.8—the newest iteration of OS X• Does not yet cooperate with the
GSLIS lab login system• Introduces a few new features• If you’ve recently purchased a new
Mac, you probably have this on your machine

Why use Mac?
• The majority of GSLIS domain machines dual boot giving you the option to choose Windows 7 or Mac OS 10.6 (Snow Leopard)
• The nature of the networking infrastructure works well with Mac, hence the better boot time
