Jaguar Experience

In the season holidays, I finally bought Mac OS X Jaguar. Apple Hong Kong offered
$1120 with Wacom Graphire 2 tablet
,
which is the one I dreamed about.

The upgrade from 10.1 on my iBook was successful. But after the install, I managed to
have 3.5GB disk space left off by 10GB Hard disk. So I decided to re-install all from scratch.
I tar'ed up my $HOME directory and move the archive to punknix, then start the full install.

The installation was just the same from the previous upgrade, smooth but slow... And after it finished
and rebooted, I immediately put my $HOME back, iTunes and iPhoto had no problem.
All my MP3s and photos were back as normal, without any problem in accessing them!
I then reinstalled all other stuff, Mozilla, iCal, iSync, other DVD utils, and finially,
fink

.
From fink, I have install xfree86-base, xfree86-rootless, KDE, Gnome, etc, and set the default WM as
KDE. At last, I installed
OpenOffice
, which could
only be run on Jaguar. Both KDE and OpenOffice had no problem at all.

Rest of the holidays I explored how my Graphire 2 works. But still, I need some practise on it.

Nothing to complain at the moment, except Mozilla for XFree86 and nedit still not available, but it's not
a big deal. But funny thing is, I still not make use of the new features of Jaguar :
iChat, Address Book, Rendezvous etc. I start curious the need of the upgrade...
