fwiw,

I paid, installed, and have not had any problems whatsoever. If anything, previous problems created by me by upgrading Perl and Apache all vanished because they got set back to the vendor provided versions.

I have now installed Jaguar on a PB400, iMac350, and iBook600 (all G3 machines) and all work without any pains or problem of any kind.

And yes, now I can print from all the machines to one cheap printer in the house.

I've avoided the upgrade to Jaguar for a number of reasons.
 - Annoyed over being charged for what still seems like a maintenance
release to me.
Apple's mistake there was in the numbering, not the charging. It's definitely as much an upgrade as others they have charged for--perhaps more. The printing changes alone are worth the price.

 - Listening to all of the pain you folks and others have gone through
getting things to work.
Well those of us who had a completely painless upgrade obviously don't have anything to say. My upgrade to Jaguar was virtually trouble free. I did have to recompile lynx though. But my hand-built Apache/mod_perl/embperl stuff all continued to work just fine. As did the hundreds of other unix utilities I've built.

I'm not sure which upsets me more: that people are so unwilling to accept
responsibility for their own actions, or that they are so eager to regulate
everyone else's.
