[QUOTE="robbym, post: 521690, member: 8626"] [b]Switching back to Tiger from Leopard[/b] Being the sucker I am for new releases I just had to to be among the first to clean install leopard on my new maxed-out macbook. Here are the top ten reasons I'm switching back to Tiger until the next few major 10.5 updates and 3rd party updates pass. 1. incompatible with many 3rd party software packages (e.g. filemaker) 2. dot mac is seriously bugged (too many errors to list) 3. new mac firewall won't stealth ports (option doesn't work) 4. keychain doesn't like leopard so far (buggy with long passwords) 5. mac mail won't remember passwords under leopard 6. airport networking bugs (requires manual connection every boot) 7. intermittant long boot and shut-down (rare, maybe 1 in 15 cycles?) 8. don't like context menu changes (new "more" submenu stinks) 9. menu transparency effect can't be shut off 10. love stacks, hate new dock [/QUOTE]
