Leopard is leagues above Tiger. By now, it's stable, too (more less. I have this weird issue with DHCP). Get it now.

But like- what's better about it? concretely?

Sure, there are big name features like Spaces or whatever, which add a lot to my daily workflow, but a lot of the bigger changes are beneath the hood, things that allow developers the ability to do more. A lot of newer applications are Leopard only because of this, because they require some new feature that was added to the OS, that we never see. It also is able to make better use of a 64-bit CPU, which speeds things up quite a bit. Really, there aren't major additions, but there are little things all over, which make it a much better experience.

I'm trying to think of what else, but I haven't used Tiger in over a year for more than 10 minutes at a time, so nothing is coming to mind. You won't regret it.

Gen 1:10 And God gave the dry land the name of Earth; and the waters together in their place were named Seas: and God saw that it was good.

I don't even use it. I have the dock on the left.
