Too bad you cant use compiz-fusion on macs, otherwise id buy a mac straight away
The coverflow thing is nice, but i've gone this far in my life without it so a few more months isn't going to hurt.

Time Machine, which looks like a weird hybrid of Microsoft's System Restore and a disk imaging program is no good to me as it seems you need a separate external drive.

The preview thing seems to be slower than opening the file in the first place as you have to click it then go upto the top to click the eye icon.

I don't use ichat or mail. The spaces looks OK, but as I don't do hardcore work (that's for my desktop) then I probably won't use that much.

Plus the fact, contrary to public opinion Tiger did slow my powerbook down, and my little 1ghz PPC G4 is struggling enough already, and is right on the cusp of compatibility. Soeaking of which...

They are having a laugh aren't they?

Still for compiz-fusion you can always reformat and stick a copy of Ubuntu on there I think I might do eventually actually. as it seems Tiger is as far as I can go.
