"Overall, Tiger is the best and most advanced personal computer operating system on the market, despite a few drawbacks. It leaves Windows XP in the dust."
"It also adds to the Mac's general superiority over typical Windows computers as the best choice for average consumers doing the most common computing tasks. Apple's hardware already was the best in the business, and Mac OS X has, so far, escaped the virus and spyware problems that plague Windows."

Leading Online Retailer Claims Apple Violated Trademarks; Tiger Direct Requests Temporary Restraining Order and InjunctionHere's a brief excerpt:
MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 28, 2005--Tiger Direct, Inc. - http://www.tigerdirect.com - , a Top-10 US eCommerce site, today filed a lawsuit against Apple Computer in the United States District Court for the District of Florida. The suit alleges Apple Computer engaged in trademark infringement and unfair trade practices in connection with its recent marketing campaign for the latest version of its "MAC OS X" operating system -- which Apple has named "Tiger." As a result of the perceived confusion between the products now being marketed by Apple under the "Tiger" brand, Tiger Direct has asked for a temporary restraining order and injunction against Apple Computer to stop further damage to Tiger Direct's well-known Tiger brand.The lawsuit focuses on the pending release of Apple's OS X 10.4 "Tiger" operating system. Apple has been running a sizeable multi-media marketing campaign, promoting the OS X 10.4 "Tiger" operating system since about April 12, 2005. The promotions refer to "Tiger Essentials," Tiger Unleashed," "Tiger World Premiere" and "X Days until Tiger," and direct consumers to a "Tiger Center" that features products from manufacturers and product categories which are basically the same as the offerings by Tiger Direct. A preliminary injunction hearing has been scheduled for Tuesday, May 3, 2005.
The search capability sounds wonderful, but of course, would require lots of drive real estate for the overhead, and a much faster processor than I have around here.

We used to call those "DAs", or, going back twenty years, "Sidekick". ;')
