Make: Online : Mac OS X Tiger follow up

Mac OS X Tiger follow up

On Friday's MAKE:Audio show we had a quick review of Mac OS X Tiger and now that's we've been banging on it for a few more hours, here are some cheers and jeers. Spotlight search is creepy fast, it's finding everything almost instantly. Dashboard and its Widgets are fun but take up a lot of memory, not sure if it matters though. The RSS screensaver is also fun, here's a video of what it looks like. Only Macs that are 1Ghz G4 and above can do join in multi-video chats, but multi-audio seems to be fine on some sub 1Ghz machines here. Even if you bought QuickTime Pro 6+ you need to repurchase QuickTime 7. Overall a great release, it's living up to all the stellar reviews. Some photos from the Seattle store (4th in line!).
