HOLD THAT TIGER

For those interested in such things, my reluctance to dive into the new Mac Tiger X Operating System is eroding.

The regular notes from those already converted have taken a toll; all about what I am 'missing'.

We just recieved the new MacWorld which tells me how to optimize the use of my Tiger and, shit, I don't even have one.

I am slipping.

Just a moment ago I read Walt Mossberg's piece in the Wall Street Journal about the impact of Apple's conversion to Intel chips. In it, he praises the Tiger inordinately.

I almost went to Mac.com to place an order! Reflexively. Compulsion.

But I held back.

I am close.

Is this like prolonging an orgasm? Enjoyable in and of itself? Teasing one's desire along the edge? Computer pornography?

I will keep you advised.
