I agree with just about everything you say.

Panther is more stable. Memory is way way better. Multitasking. Multiprocessor.

I was very excited about Expose but I've found that Windowshade X is better for me.

So isn't it a surprise that more people have NOT upgraded? There has to be a reason and I think that it's speed and the interface.

I have two friends that have upgraded to X this month. Both designers. One bought a G5 (up from an 8600/200) the other just upgraded his Titanium (?) or something similar.

Both hate the Dock.

(I'm testing Dragstrip right now. So far I think it's everything the dock should be.) It's been 3 years. When will Apple get the message?

My other pal has a 1 or 1 1/2 year old Quicksilver, his first computer. He almost never uses 9 because he knows it's dead but he does use it occasionally for certain software that he doesn't have on X. He is amazed at how nimble OS9 is.

Like I said I've crossed over but it took Panther to get me to go all the way. And I've had X installed since 10.0. I like X. But with a good interface I'd LOVE X.
