Re: Tiger Release
Im eager to try it out, since Im having a problem with Mail not able to receive email to my domain address. And I HATE using Web Mail (which Im doing now). Im hoping that Tiger will fix this. If it doesnt, Im going to have to change domain hosts for the second time in a month. So Ill be an early adopter. I may install it first on an external FireWire 800 drive to test it out first, though. Is anyone using an inexpensive domain host and not having problems getting domain email in Mail?

Re: Tiger Release
The Apple site goes into very little detail on which GPUs give full support. I have a brand-new PowerBook 12 (64MB nVidia 5200) so I'm guessing it is fully supported, but my friend has an 800MHz iBook G4 and I don't know whether I should recommend the update for her or not. Also, my 1GHz Sawtooth has a 32MB GeForce MX pulled out of a QuickSilver, this is an older, though Quartz Extreme capable card. Will it be supported under Core Image, and if not, is it still worthwhile from a performance viewpoint to install Tiger on that machine?

Re: Tiger Release
That only lists the cards, not the extent to which they are implemented. I want to know if my cards will get full or limited support, not just if they are on the list.
