Mac OS X Tiger - Fall In Love All Over Again

byprfstars May 4, 2005
53 Helpfuls 54 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Easy installation, powerful new features
Cons Expensive, system requirements
Recommended it? Yes

I've never loved my Macintosh more than I do today. I installed Mac OS X Version 10.4 this morning, and Tiger truly lives up to the hype.

After ten years of Apple computers and every Macintosh operating system from System 7.1 to 10.3, I started to feel a little jaded. Sure, the operating... Read full review »

Pros Metadata search, widgets, beautiful design.
Cons New mail.app is a little ugly and doesn't include iLife.

Why is it a Tiger?

I don't know why, but every MacOS X release is named after a big cat (10.0 was Cheetah, 10.1 Puma, 10.2 Jaguar, 10.3 Panther, and now 10.4 Tiger). The logic of Apple's catty ways may be slightly confusing until one references the Oxford dictionary:

Another great OS X release, the best OS on the planet!

bylawman67 Apr 30, 2005
27 Helpfuls 28 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Fast, stable, new features really work well, better Windows compatibility
Cons Expensive upgrade, worthwhile, but not essential if you have Panther
Recommended it? Yes

Its always difficult to review an entire operating system, especially when that system is new and you haven't had a tremendous amount of time to play with it. OS X 10.4 "Tiger" is just such a system, and as I got it installed on my PowerBook only Thursday morning (Saturday evening now), I've had... Read full review »

Pros Tiger roars into action with some really fun features.
Cons None.
Recommended it? Yes

Tiger is one sleek cat. Unlike previous versions of MacOS X, emphasis is more on innovative new features than improvements in basic operation. If you love new toys to play with, your new Tiger will definitely keep you amused.

Pros more 64 bit support, new features, not windows
Cons another paid upgrade
Recommended it? Yes

I have been a fan of the mac ever since I first started playing with Mac OS X Public beta. I am amazed at how Apple has been able to reinvent it's operating system with each new release. Tiger (10.4) is no excpetion.



10.4's biggest new feature is Spotlight. I have only been using... Read full review »

Apple's New Cat Is Out for Mac

bycallaway9198 Jul 6, 2006
15 Helpfuls 16 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Faster, More stable, Dashboard, Spotlight, Automator, and Nicer Interface...
Cons Price a little steep for just an OS upgrade from Panther...
Recommended it? Yes

After a few months of upgrading to Tiger, I have finally come to a complete opinion of the new OS. I upgraded from Panther(10.3.X) and now have been fluidly running for about 6 months. I haven't had any major crashes or slowdowns. In this review, I will cover the main differences between Panther... Read full review »

Mighty Tiger Sleeps

Pros Fun
Cons Sluggish operation, buggy
Recommended it? No

What happened? The Mac operating system for OS X, supposedly a powerhouse built on the stability of Unix, has left me wondering just what Apple thinks they're doing.
Sure, they've got Widgets and they're really fun. But, Widgets won't process your jobs out under deadline. Sure, the system... Read full review »

Pros Increased overall system performance. Experience-changing new features.
Cons I haven't experienced any notable problems with Tiger.
Recommended it? Yes

Hello. Tiger is the best operating system I've used. I began using it the day it was released, which was April 29, 2005. Now that I've had some time to use it, I think it's time to review it.

First, a bit of context. As far as operating systems go, I use Windows XP at work and... Read full review »

Tiger 10.4: Very feline, sleek and stubborn

bymteqc May 17, 2005
13 Helpfuls 14 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Feels faster and more responsive
Cons Too much hype; minor bugs to be resolved in later releases; imposed features.
Recommended it? Yes

Apple's release of OS X 10.4 Tiger marks the achievement of maturity for the acclaimed operating system. I found many good things about it, with certain caveats and disappointment.

PREPARE

On the plus side, the upgrade process is as easy as ever, as long as the usual precautions... Read full review »

Pros Some noticeable performance upgrades and impressive new features. Flawless upgrade from...
Cons New features may not be worth price. Quicktime 7Pro not included. Safari feels slower.
Recommended it? Yes

I have been using Mac OS X since its introduction. I felt that Apple truly got it right with Panther as I had experienced flawless performance right out of the box. So when I initially heard about Tiger I really wasn't chomping at the bit to upgrade (those who know me know that I have a real... Read full review »
