If you haven’t already bought 10.4 and want to get 10.3, CDW has it in stock.

What is there to gain from upgrading your OS? Considering everything at stake there would have to be some extremely good benefits. If 10.2x is stable why move on? If it ain’t broke don’t break it.
This has always been the rule of thumb that I work by. What I’ve been telling anyone who’s looking to update to 10.4 is create two partitions one with the set up you have now, 10.3.x for most, then put 10.4 on the other partition. This way if you have problems you can go back to the 10.3 setup and continue working.

Trying out the latest & greatest is fun. Media 100 should come out with a SD board that works on a G5, too. Although I am saving for a Media 100 HD, I’m also playing around with Motion and Combustion and a lot of other programs that soon will require 10.4. I actually LIKE spending money on equipment but Media 100 doesn’t come out with cool stuff. Sigh…

Jim, you don’t think Media 100 HD Versdion 10 is cool? Look at what it does and compare that with the others. We only want to edit our media and create productions, don’t need cool, just good!

So people are using OS X 10.4.1 with media 100i and having no trouble? No one seems to say exactly that. Does it work or not? Trying to get a bonafide answer.

Yes, I was saing exactly that. See my earlier post.

The reason we are interested in this question is that we have a maching that serves both Media 100 i users and Final Cut users. We want to be able to upgrade the system to use the latest FC5 and Tiger. Currently we are running 10.3.5.
Have any more folks tried Tiger with 8.2.2 since this thread was started? Any more results to mention? Since Quicktime 7 was such a major change, that’s where I’d be a bit nervous with the M100. Maybe dual boot is the answer.
Thanks,

Anytime you are upgrading a major change (or even relatively minor ones for that matter), it is far safer to just add another harddrive and use a dual boot system — especially when drives are so cheap nowadays.
