Tiger question

I just bought a computer, tiger was pre-installed and also came with the Tiger disks. I installed my programs I wanted, loaded my music etc...but realized that programs like iphoto, imovie and some others were not on it? Any reason? Also how could I get them back on without totally re-installing the software

What computer do you have? Where did you get it from? Are the discs the restore/install discs for that computer or are they a retail version of Tiger?

A retail version of Tiger is the OS only. It will not include the iLife apps. If the discs are a set of restore/install discs, then it is possible that the iLife apps are included on a seperate disc. Check to make sure that one of the discs isn't labeled as such.

when did they unbundle the ilife from osx?

iLife has never been a part of OS X. It has been included with machines purchased from Apple for some time now, but it is not a part of the OS. This is why it is sold seperately. If you simply buy a retail version of Tiger then you get the OS only.
