Is anyone getting Tiger? I just wanted to know if I should preorder it or wait a year for all the "bugs" to be worked out.
I currently have Jaguar but got iLife5 last month and saw that I needed Panther for it. I was going to upgrade to Panther, but then saw that Tiger was coming out "soon" (release date wasn't told yet at the time). After visiting Apple.com yesterday to look at iPods (still haven't gotten mine yet, though I dream... ) I was greeted with a black page and saw that Tiger's release date was announced and that it's only a few days away (4/29). I thought it was going to be in June, for some reason. Anyway, after reading on forums, I read of both people saying yes, they were going to preorder and get it...and people saying they're going to wait a few months until all the Tiger bugs are out, and that they're perfectly happy with their Panther now, so they'll wait.
Does anyone have advice? Preorder...or wait a few months to a year (and in the meantime, get the now cheaper Panther upgrade, so I can use iLife)? Has anyone ever preordered any of Apple's previous OS programs, and found it better to wait? I know with Tiger not out yet, it's hard to say "yeah, go get it, because I tried it and it's good"...but I just wanted to know if in the past, is it better to wait or not?
Thanks!
