Is Leopard that much better than Tiger?

Hi,

The title pretty much says it

Is 10.5 that much better than 10.4 (is it worth upgrading)?

It really is.

Quick look, is a feature I'm just so accustomed to now its shocking. Just whack spacebar and the file is "previewed" right in finder without opening a seperate program.

Little tweaks are everywhere and just improve the OS. Also you'll find some new apps require leopard now and most will in the future.

Spaces is also a great feature.

At school we have mostly Leopard, but still some old Tiger Macs, and the different between Tiger and Leopard is amazing.

Ooh okay. I'll buy a leopard install disk off eBay or something then instead of getting it from apple/torrents

yeah it is

It's about £55-£85 on eBay, so I think I'll try and buy it tonight I bought a ram upgrade earlier today, so hopefully Leopard will run okay once I install the new ram n_n

Hey there, What mac do you have? and What are the specs of it.

The one I'm trying to install it on (the machine I bought purposefully to upgrade) has around 1024mb ram, 733mhz processor & 300GB HD.

I understand that the processor is lower than Leopard requires, but aslong as I have enough ram (1gb) it will run fine on it (afaik).
