It would be nice if they'd let Snow Leopard have admin capabilities with Snow & Graphite base stations.
Not everyone can afford to dump something that's working when Apple comes out with a new do-dad. |

do-dad ?
Yeah Apple is funny that way. They don't try to make the latest 64 bit OS compatible with a bandwidth limited base station that's a decade old.
Oh wait, NO computer manufacturer does that. |

| Most people in this country don't have Internet speeds at home much beyond 8...well within the limits of the old Airports. I'd guess the majority of people are at 1.5. I'm not going to buy a $300 base station/backup unit when my Internet is only 1.5. |
