... seems to work as advertised. That's helpful indeed. Bit of a sticky process upgrading from the Jag installation previously on this PowerBook, but now running fine.

The bizarre thing is what's happened to Open Office. Previously I remember OOo as being slow and ugly on both Jag and Pan. On Tiger, the same version has become almost smooth and pretty enough to use. This might be down to improved X11 fonts. Unfortunately I can't compare against Panther, because my Panther machine has suffered the iBook Black Screen of Death, and has gone to the Mac hospital for the next few weeks. This pismo is not very high-spec (400 MHz G3, 100Mz bus, 20G replacement HDD, 8M VRAM and no Quartz Extreme, but 512M RAM so that helps). But the way things look and feel now, I'd guess Tiger will be quite usable once ported back to my unsupported desktop machines of similar spec. So bring it on, XPF...
