Tiger is far more than dashboard. Where did you get that silly idea from?

Tiger != Dashboard - Stormchild

There's quite a lot more to Tiger than Dashboard. Have a look at this excellent review at ArsTechnica for details. Tiger is a pretty big step forward for Mac OS X...it's just a matter of ironing out the issues that are bound to happen to some people during any major OS upgrade.

This sounds like the wishful thinking of someone who can't afford to update. For my $$$, 10.4 has been the most worthy upgrade yet and it has a lot more going for it than Dashboard. Works great here...

Spotlight and Automator make Tiger worthwile for me. Bugs? The only ones I have are in my front yard.

Anybody who thinks Dashboard is the main reason to get (or not get) Tiger has obviously never actually used Tiger. ;)

Lemmings - dbmite

It's amazing how many lemmings will talk themselves into thinking that Tiger is a purchase well worth it. Tiger on a G4 is just plain terrible, performance wise and compatibility wise. Tiger is obviously made to take advantage of the G5's abilities.

I also do not want to spend the next two years of my life updating programs and fixing endless crashes only to have another OS X version for $129 available by the time I get everything working smoothly again.

I'll stick with Panther thank you very much. Tiger is just plain thin!
