There is no question. This is probably the worst operating system to ever come out into the computer industry. Basically, its a piece… Well, you know what I mean. I promise you, there is a VERY GOOD REASON WHY WINDOWS IS THE MOST POPULAR OS IN THE WORLD. Most of what this OS has is stolen from other OS’s, even things like widgets (on the dashboard), minimizing windows (from Microsoft Windows), the very NAME “Windows” (used to describe open applications on the desktop), maximizing windows, virtually everything on it is copied from other OS’s, and there is a reason why Apple did this. Their OS is terrible, and they needed to steal from other companies in order to make theirs popular, which even now isn’t as popular as Windows, which it stole primarily from. The reason I am writing this review isn’t just to trash something on the net, its to help others not fall into the trap that Apple makes out of its OS. Sure, alot of proffesional people use it, but that’s because they only need to do one thing, and Apple can do that, but nothing else. If you need to do anything other than browse the web (Apple can’t even do that very well, with Safari), then get Windows.

I got this os with my new iMac, it plays music from a CD, the software comes with none. It plays dvd’s. No tutorials to help you get started, it does have some microsoft junk bundled with it. I paid more to get a mac so that I would not half to deal with microsoft. The printed documentation is of little help. My first iMac 9.1 came with a lot of extras, Appleworks, music, movies, and a good tutorial. Also none of my software that I am running on 9.1 will work on Tiger.
Not happy with my $2,000 + purchase .

Mac’s Tiger operating system is an improvement over an already excellent earlier version.
I also have have upgraded to iLife 6 which is a marvelous suite of products for photos, videos, music and production of DVDs.

This is a significant upgrade f rom the previous operating version. I think ‘user friendly’ aspect of this operating system is worth the investment. Amy Mac user can appreciate the way its put together, and once you become familiar with the logo’s, it’s a breeze to use. I don’t think the cost of the program is out of line, and it will clean up your entire system as far as accessing programs and files
