Mac OS X Tiger - Fall In Love All Over Again

byprfstars May 4, 2005

53 Helpfuls 54 Helpfuls

Pros Easy installation, powerful new features

Cons Expensive, system requirements

Recommended it? Yes

I've never loved my Macintosh more than I do today. I installed Mac OS X Version 10.4 this morning, and Tiger truly lives up to the hype.

After ten years of Apple computers and every Macintosh operating system from System 7.1 to 10.3, I started to feel a little jaded. Sure, the operating... Read full review »

Pros Metadata search, widgets, beautiful design.

Cons New mail.app is a little ugly and doesn't include iLife.

Why is it a Tiger?

I don't know why, but every MacOS X release is named after a big cat (10.0 was Cheetah, 10.1 Puma, 10.2 Jaguar, 10.3 Panther, and now 10.4 Tiger). The logic of Apple's catty ways may be slightly confusing until one references the Oxford dictionary:

Upgrading; Microsoft Office 2010 Home and Student versus Home and Business; Microsoft-Office 2007 versus 2010

bytexas-swede Feb 22, 2012

27 Helpfuls 28 Helpfuls

Pros Microsoft Outlook 2010, improved customer support, customizable ribbon, backstage view,...

Cons Upgrade from Microsoft Office 2007 to Microsoft Office 2010 might not be worth it.

Recommended it? Yes

Internet email sites like hotmail and Gmail sometimes drive me nuts. The user interfaces are ugly and clumsy and you don’t have many of the nice features that you have in Microsoft Outlook. Microsoft Office 2010 Home and Student does not come with Outlook. I had also read about how nicely and... Read full review »

11 Helpfuls 12 Helpfuls

Pros Several improvements over 2007

Cons As with 2007, no option to revert to traditional menus--Ribbon is mandatory.

Recommended it? Yes

For what it's worth, this review goes for ALL versions of MS Office 2010, not just Home and Business.

After using the release candidate for Office 2010 in the fall of 2009 for a while, as well as the beta for 2010 that Microsoft made available more recently, I have just purchased an official... Read full review »
