OSX Tiger Owns XP any day... It will also own Vista... O yea i forgot... even LEOPARD comes out before Vista.... No comparison between XP and Tiger Slight dely? shipping software? o yea i forgot… does XP include anything like MAIL built in? I don’t think so…..

And the slight delays in the mail app are no more that the ones caused by security utilities in the XP.

Spotlight! Exposé! QuickTime7! Dashboard! Automator! iChat AV! .Mac Sync! Quartz Extreme! Aqua! Bonjour!

This is the best operating system available.”

Everytime the campus IT administrators have to dea lwith any sort of virus, the block a lot of ports on campus, yet if someone is running a MAC system, whether a prof or student, the port is immediately opened, because as the tech on the line said, "I have never heard of this happening to a MAC." And eventually the IT people found out my actualy comp had no virus at all , yet somehow my IP address was reported. I find this amazing yet funnny, but i am not willing to upgrade to Tiger for the same reasons i didnt upgrade to Panther the first few months. There are plenty of problems i am sure needing to be worked out, so i avoid them and wait for an upgraded version to be released that has the few bugs worked out.
