Tiger Day
Deja vu all over again.
It was October 24th, 2003, that I stood in line to buy Panther. I’ll certainly be at Apple SoHo tomorrow night, if only to keep some sense of Geek Cred. I mean, it would have been all too easy to just order the damn Tiger from Amazon, right? I enjoy a sense of occasion. I’ll even wear my Panther dog tags. To those that understand, no explanation is necessary, and to those that don’t, no explanation will suffice :-)
As I did last time, I’ll be cautious and only install Tiger on an external FW drive. I only have the one Mac here in NY, but have about 5 FW drives – easy call! I can suffer booting Panther outside the house for a little while. The word on the web points to some broken apps and some annoyances. Word to the wise: don’t switch over completely until the first update (or second, or third …), and for gawd’s sake, back up your schtuff!
I’ll try to get some blurry pictures.
