lol, what's the big fuss. just grab whatever mac u want if you need it. I don't see much actual improvement from tiger to leopard that you must have it. Most of it are add-on that can be done with apps. Even if it's out on this year, i'll probably wait for 10.5.2 before upgrading my workstation.

lol... i don't like to repeat myself.

"By the time you waited for leopard, then Apple will/might announce Mac revision that's coming next few months. Wait again? Ok, fine, faster machine, why not right? Then you waited, by the time the new machine coming, there's a new apps or new version of OS announced. Wait again? (and this will never end)"
