iindigo said:Well, 10.3.0 did have a few major bugs, but they were mostly in things most normal people don't use everyday. The main problem was the whole FileVault deal...
I do agree in that I have faith in them though - remember, these are Apple's developers, not Microsoft's

They seed the GM. At least they did for Panther. Of course, you really don't know *for sure* that it is the GM until someone gets the retail version and tells us what the build number is. With Panther, we had 7B85 just before Apple announced it (started the countdown), which was a bout 2 weeks before it was available in the stores.patseguin said:LOL I hear ya totally. I think that is remnant from the Windows world though. I am just wondering because my G5 came with Jaguar and upgraded a few Panther betas over it and then Panther final over that. I'm just wondering if there is extra junk that I would get rid of by clean installing Tiger. I did an archive and install on my FW drive and Tiger is running extremely fast.
EDIT: Do they seed the GM to us or send out DVD?
