I bet it's a nightmare for tech support, though.

15 whole Gigabytes? Oh my god! Our 200+ gb HDDs can't sustain that! If you'd take the time to read up on performance articles and such, 1gb is still sufficient with minimal disk thrashing, while 512mb will bring about performance similar to running XP with 256mb of RAM.


I agree with you, but I think he's making the point that Tiger installs happily on a 300mhz system... and.... looks prettier.

This kinda sums it up in my view.

Wait, you use a DIALOG BOX to do this? Hell, I always just opened the Font control panel in XP and chucked the .ttf file into it. I didn't realize there even was another way to do it.


I use OSX, I just double click them. I'm just remarking how amateurish and inconsistent it is to have three generations of icon in one screenshot. What, 6 years of development and Windows 3.1 and 95 icons are still popping up all over the place?
