Apple Mac OS X 10.4 “Tiger” Review
By Usayd“Paul Thurrott has posted a review of Mac OS X ‘Tiger’ on his SuperSite for Windows. He gives it a score of 4 out of 5. Interesting to get a Microsoft Windows journalist’s take on Tiger, especially one as hardcore as Thurrott. In the article, he actually confesses that he has ‘been a Mac fan [his] entire life.’ Interesting, considering some of his criticism of Apple’s work in the past.”
Allow me to make a confession that may surprise you. I’ve been a Mac fan my entire life. Back in 1987, when my house burned down after a Christmas tree mishap I’d rather not detail at the moment, I needed to replace my crispy Commodore 64 set up with a more modern system. I originally wanted an Amiga, but alas, the local Commodore dealer didn’t offer financing. The local Apple dealer did, however, and after figuring out how much I wanted to spend (an exorbitant amount even by today’s standards), I arrived at two choices: An Apple IIGS with a color display, 768 KB (not MB) of RAM, one 5.25-inch floppy drive, one 3.5-inch floppy drive, and an Image Writer II printer, or a black-and-white Mac Plus with 1 MB of RAM.
Some good screenshots there too, I can’t wait for the 29th!
