Tiger Tiger

Well, Mac OS 10.4 is out – so what’s it like? In a word, lovely. One minor hiccup is that my SpeedTouch 330 USB ADSL modem no longer works but as it’s a huge resource hog at the best of times this isn’t a great loss.

Spotlight is the thing that’s grabbed me the most – particularly as integrated into Apple Mail – the ability to make smart folders is such a great thing. I’ve been running it for less than a day and can’t live without em already 🙂

Also, Ecto (the blogging client I use for make these entries in Movable Type) has been updated with the new Tiger-tweaked look and feel, and it fits in with the rest of the OS beautifully.

So – only been running it for a day or so but a big thumbs up all round. The performance feels a lot better but that may be because I’m no longer running the horrible SpeedTouch thingy.
