Interesting comments. For the record, when I installed Tiger on a G4
iMac with half a gig of RAM, it ran like a dog compared with Panther,
because Tiger needed so much more memory. BUT... I needed some of the
things Tiger offered that Panther didn't - and there are some nice
things about Tiger that aren't available in Panther. So I coped.
I don't think I will be installing Leopard until I have to.
Are you serious about Leopard not allowing repairing permissions twice?
What's THAT about?
One thing that Panther did in searching from the desktop was to leave
your search criteria in the box when you went elsewhere. Tiger doesn't,
which is sometimes a real PITA. but SpotInside is a very nice little
program and worth keeping open.
Incidentally, on another matter, which third party programs or utilities
do you find indispensable?
I would hate to be without Quicksilver, Shades, JollyFastVNC, Camouflage
and Sharpshooter.
