| Review | Rating | Last Updated | Mac OS X Tiger
I am holding onto my G4 Mac. Don't need a G5 to change my whole life and cause me to upgrade thousands of dollars worth of software applications just to conform to the new OS for the G5. Everything seems to work fine right now, so why would I need to change anything? Tiger OS System takes care of everything for me and after 25 years of computers, I don't need to upgrade to something that has to have all the bugs worked out for the next 2 years. I think Apple is more concerned about iPods than making a better Macintosh. I visited an Apple store in Ft. Lauderdale and could not get help with information about the new G5 computer. They just tried to sell me an iPod. The iPod is the last thing I will need on this earth. | 4 | Today | Mac OS X 10.4.6
I upgraded OSX 10.3.9 without a hitch....well I did have to rework a few items (drivers for my 2496 sound card and a few apps.,etc...) to function however it wasn't that bad. After upgrading I can now use my wireless network printer. (Yuppie!) This OS kind of looks the same as 10.3.9 but it has many new features I like and use. I highly recommend it.
I mainly use my computer for Music (Digital Performer 4.6) and home video projects (Finalcut Pro 4.5HD) I also use it for surfing the Internet, Design and Word documents among many other things. My Mac is and has been the main item of my home recording studio. (G4 800 Quicksilver) I am very happy so far with this upgrade and recommend it to all G4 users waiting.
Hope this helps,

I was upgrading Pro Tools (recording software) and needed to upgrade my Apple Mac operating system. This was exactly what I needed. After ordering I was waiting for both this software and the Pro Tools upgrade. I was getting anxious since I was ready to begin recording again (haven't in about a year and a half). Anyway, I sent an email to John Kreutzer (the third party vendor I was ordering from). He was exceptionally kind and answered letting me know it had shipped a few days before and that I should get the software the next day. Well, low and behold, it was at home when I got there that night. A day before promised!!! That's refreshing these days. It installed with no problems and I updated from Apple any patches that have come out since then. It works flawlessly and I am happily recording again and thoroughly enjoying myself.
I would highly recommend this to anyone that needs this upgrade. In this case, Pro Tools has not certified it's product with Leopard yet so this was best for me.
My thanks to Amazon and to John for making it happen timely.

Needed this upgrade, tried several places to get it including Apple but found it here.
Was everything advertised, came promptly and I am completely satisfied. | 5 | Today | Buggest software around
Unreliable software. It hangs up frequently. iCal is the worst scheduling program on the market. Expect it to duplicate events every time you sync with your phone. On a related note. Expect to pay for 3rd party software in order to sync your phone if its not a iphone. | 1 | Today | overpriced
Built on top of free unix technology, add that to overpriced software bundles and limiting compliance to vendor supplied hardware and you've got a real winner. Ubuntu 7.04 PC Edition is basically the same technology under the hood and is going to save you some green. | 1 | Today | The Best OS
Do I really need to review this? It is by FAR the best OS out there (until October when the new one comes out!).
LIttle to no crashes or problems. Easy for beginners on a computer. Won't scare away the timid. Makes setting up your computer a breeze! | 5 | Today | Mac vs Windows
I have been working with computers for 33 years. I have programmed OSs in assembler so I think I can say a few words about the operating system of a computer with a modicum of authority. While Mac OS X "Tiger" isn't perfect, each time I have to use WinXP I thank God that there is an alternative -- Mac OS X "Tiger"! There are so many aspects of Tiger that are just right vs so many aspects of WinXP that are just WRONG! It's scarry to think that Microsoft -- with 15000+ programmers working on a project to essentially copy the Mac OS -- could miss so many points in it's effort to clone the Mac OS. Imagine how bad it would be if they doubled the size of their staff?!? WinXP -- and Word 2003 for that matter -- are the true weapons of mass destruction. Just get a Mac! And thank you Amazon for allowing me to say all of this! | 5 | Today | Very, Very Pleased!
I also have not had time to discover all the new things on Tiger. I upgraded from Panther on a souped up G3 imac special edition DV. Instead of buying a new computer for thousands, it cost me about $300. So far I'm finding it well worth the price. It's faster and Tiger is running well. There have been no problems and I'm reading the book Tiger for Dummies to get a better handle on things. I am a veteran Mac user and while I am familiar with Windows, prefer it immensely. | 5 | Today | Apple Mac OS X upgrade
Udgraded from 10.2.4 to 1o.4.6. Cannot see all the benefits yet. Needed to upgrade to run selected sofware i.e. google earth, but lost my wireless connection. After spending almost 15 hours over the phone with Apple I was never able to reestablish the connection. | 2 | Today |
