    I'm using it and it does seem faster than Tiger, especially booting, dashboard, and spotlight... all three noticeably faster to me. Actually those are the only things where I notice a speed difference, and I haven't noticed anything being slower in Leopard.

    I'm not sure that I understand your question... I've been using Macs for a few years now but I only just started trying out Leopard. I don't post much to forums though, although that seems to gradually be changing.

    I've been using Leopard for just over 12 months. It's better than Tiger wrt feature content. Speed/responsiveness of Tiger vs. Leopard is not something that can be described in any real meaningful way IMO.



    Your iMac will be just fine for Leopard. Just make sure you have a nice big external HD for the Time Machine backups.



    Enjoy Leopard.
