    Why havent there been any security updates lately for Jaguar? My old Mac with upgrades is barely able to handle 10.2.8. Are we left out now?

    Panther runs a lot better on old machines than Jaguar. To give you an idea, I have an original ibook, 300MHz G3, 288 RAM. Panther's a lot smoother and faster. The "stickiness" of Jaguar isn't there so much. If you do a search I think you'll find that this is generally the case.



    If you can get your hands on Panther, I'd recommend the switch. I can't attest to Tiger's performance, though.
