Mac OS X Tiger -- 4/29/2005

Apple's newest version of its operating system, named Tiger, goes on sale April 29th. Tiger, aka OS X 10.4, is astounding with new features and capabilities. The feature I am most looking forward to is Spotlight. Spotlight is like a database and search engine built into the operating system, except without all the security problems associated with Google's Desktop Search utility. Its a really slick feature that even indexes the content within PDF files and the metadata of JPEG and PNG files. Bascially, its awesome and I can't wait to try it out when Penn State gives me a free copy. Hells yeah for the educational discount.
