Tiger Released
Today was the release date for OSX 10.4 aka "Tiger".
Paula and I went the Apple store to pick up a family pack and ended up purchasing Tiger, two games, Airport Express, Airport Express cables, keyboard protectors, and a retractable ethernet cable. That store is seriously dangerous.
I'll write about Tiger when I get more of a chance to play with it. However, I just finished setting up the Airport Express and hooking it up to our stereo allowing us to stream from iTunes directly. Very very cool. It also acts as a wireless bridge for our network. The wireless router we have now--a DLink--is going to be moved to a corner of the house to improve our connectivity throughout the house.
I saw LOTS of people buying computers, software, peripherials, iPods, and lots of other things. The 10% coupon at the door was the turning point I think.
In other words, all this hype for Tiger is also about selling lots of other stuff. Clever Clever Clever.
