Well worth it
There isn't one thing I can point to as being a must have, but all the tweaks, faster performance and updates to apps make it well worth it.
I gave it a "7"....
because those networking bugs (mounted servers sometimes but not always showing on desktop; "alias could not be resolved"-bug; can't see SMB networked drives, only servers etc.) have to be adressed. Otherwise, I'd have given it a "9".

i don't like it because bejeweled slowed to a crawl, my epson sp820 not working, and response times too slow. what's good about panther for the casual user?

Check out the Apple Discussion forums for tips (especially from AllOSX.com) on getting your printer running.

There must be something wrong with your install. I'm running Panther here at work on a G4/400, with 512 MB of RAM, and it's much faster than Jaguar was on the same machine, and feels about the same as running OS 9 on this machine! On my G4/466 with 1 GB at home, it's even much faster.

Panther gave my iBook (Dual USB) 600 mhz machine a new lease on life! The performance increase was more than worth it.<br>
FireWire and Palm
Very nicely done. I like the improvements to the Finder (no flames about appearance, please) and especially the threaded view in Mail.app.
automounter/NFS
I'm having huge problems with the automounter/NFS so pulled 3 points for that.

This is the fastest Mac OS X version, I have used! Its nearly as fast as OS 9 and any Windows on a P-4... Its a good job by Apple. I don't really understand why some have speed problems. My config is 667 MHz G4 PowerBook with 756MB RAM. Its nearly perfect now!

I'm still discovering things. This is great. I love discovering things. :D |
