Leopard is more bloated with useless features and fancy graphics
effects, but it's also much more optimized for intel macs. I think it
runs noticeably faster than Tiger on my intel macbook laptop, but
noticeably slower than Tiger on my old PowerMac G4 desktop.
I'd stay with Tiger on a PowerPC, but go with Leopard on Intel personally...

OS 10.4 (Tiger) is pretty great. Really anything 10.3 (Panther) and later
should be totally adequate for a casual user. 10.2 (Jaguar) was fine but 10.3
is faster...
OS 9 I don't even want to think about anymore.

Thanks. I'm slowly beginning to get a handle on all the different type of
Macs. Might just go the refurb route since they aren't a whole lot more
expensive than plain used. Will probably order first of next month.
Question: From what I understand "Lepard" is the latest OS. Should I order
that as well or will the installed OS be satisfactory for what I want to do?
