I haven't picked up Tiger yet and am feeling a bit left out. I can't contribute or help as much as I would like with the big Tiger boom. So lets here it for all the Panther users out there. C'mon, speak up! Who else out there hasn't upgraded yet!? :mac:

I haven't upgraded either, I think I am going to wait till I just buy a new Apple to get it, those new iMac are awesome and I could get one equiped the way I wanted from the local apple store making it perfect for an impulse buy.

I can't upgrade until BT release new drivers for their modem that are compatible with Tiger. Pretty pissed that they haven't already actually.

I also won't be upgrading until I get new hardware. Which will be about a month or two, from the looks of it.

Panther is still a solid, proven OS. If it did what you needed last week, it should still do what you need today.

Much like the others, waiting for .2 or possible wait an extra month or two (or at least that is what it seems like) and get whatever comes after tiger.

Im peeved that our newest MAC is so new, we havent even had the time or money to upgrade RAM yet, and Apple wants me to pay for an OS upgrade, I dont think so, too many other computer "things" on the financial agenda

someday probably :)
