TestMac.net has published a quick look at Mac OS X Snow Leopard. "The biggest changes are under the hood. Snow Leopard is fast. Very fast. Like, surprisingly fast. From boot times to general application usage, Snow Leopard was noticeably quicker then Leopard when using the same system. Apple and 3rd party applications alike, they all launched faster and performed smoother. I'm sure this can be attributed to the new 64-bit architecture, but its amazing how much of a difference it really is." Screenshots included.

Who uses them?
Obviously you don't.
Is that an excuse for such a poor job Apple did there or is it just that you're like most other Mac users - you know, you're at the very center of the universe: if you don't need it, nobody else does?
Which is Microsofts work around for their stupid idea of 'locking files'.
Oh yeah? And what if system simply powers down while it is halfway done?
Transactions are there to guarantee atomicity of the operation. That's why most databases have those since.. well, like forever. Now, NTFS supports them too. Good thing.
And then you ask why people mod you down.
