Update: Information on Pro Tools Compatibility for Mac OS X 10.5.3
Over the last several months, we have been working closely with Apple on fine tuning Pro Tools for OS X Leopard 10.5.3. Now that Apple has released version 10.5.3 we can enter the final stages of performance testing and quality assurance before making fully qualified versions of Pro Tools HD, LE and M-Powered software available to our customers.
As a convenience for our customers who may wish to begin their transition to Apple’s latest Leopard release as soon as possible, you can get started with pre-release versions of Pro Tools 7.4.2 that we will make available in the next few days. While the pre-release version of Pro Tools 7.4.2 has passed core internal testing requirements, the process for manufacturing fully qualified Pro Tools software normally takes up to several weeks to complete depending on performance and stability.
Stay tuned here for the latest news and updates on our progress.
Please note, however, that Pro Tools HD® 7.4.1 software is currently fully compatible with Mac OS X 10.5.1 (Leopard) when running on Apple’s current 8-core Mac Pro computers. For details on Pro Tools HD compatibility with Leopard on the 8-core Mac Pro, please visit the Pro Tools HD 7.4.1 Intel Mac Support page:
www.digidesign.com/support/hd741intelmac
As always, we appreciate your patience and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this delay has caused.
Important — Please be aware that some currently shipping plug-ins and virtual instruments are not compatible with Pro Tools running on Mac OS X Leopard and some require that you update your plug-ins if an update is available. Be sure to review the plug-in compatibility and update information here:

So get your plug-ins updated (the instrument updates listed I believe are the same as the old ones, to fix the “yellow interface” problem), and get ready for Pro Tools LE 7.4.2!!
The wait is over!

Finally!!! Woo hoo
Seriously…
Personally though, I am not going to download the pre-release version. I’ve been waiting this long, I’m going to continue to wait until the fully tested, 100% cool version comes out (which of course should be soon)
Connor!
It’s here! Yeah baby!

It’s finally here… I almost can’t believe it
Personally, I am going to wait for the full release. I’ve waited this long, I can wait a few more days/weeks for the fully tested download (although I’m sure the .pr version will be just fine)
