While somewhat better supported, unless you are on a big G5, always seems sluggy compared to Tiger, and doesn't offer the serious goods of either Tiger or Snow Leopard. The default wallpaper says it best: Cold and alone in the void of space between bright objects.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-749559194818088720.post-10781067958132292362015-11-24T12:34:22.178-08:002015-11-24T12:34:22.178-08:00Zen,

It takes a snapshot of an entire page on any website, but is not a true boxing solution by any means.<br /><br />As for TenFourFoxBox, I like it a lot. It will be especially useful on sub-1GHz G4 machines and G3's.<br /><br />Dan, we need to get you a CPU upgrade for your Sawtooth so you can run Leopard. On the right CPU/GPU, Leopard actually outperforms Tiger. <br /><br />I don't run Leopard simply for the better app selection, but rather because it's also noticeably faster and more stable than Tiger. On my Sawtooth at least.<br /><br />I will help pay for it.zenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01006273801333641372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-749559194818088720.post-35653488112173906962015-11-23T12:14:27.611-08:002015-11-23T12:14:27.611-08:00Thanks Zen, will definitely check that out.Thanks Zen, will definitely check that out.rican-linuxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12272380772590347131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-749559194818088720.post-16152578787590450682015-11-23T10:38:39.440-08:002015-11-23T10:38:39.440-08:00There was something in Cameron's blog post abo...There was something in Cameron's blog post about Stainless being able to "box" sites just by opening a new window.
