It's considerably slower, naturally, than my G5 iMac running
Tiger.
Has anyone installed Tiger on this generation of iBook and, if
so, does
it run faster, slower, or about the same as Panther?
If there's no speed improvement, then I'll just leave this one
where it
is, with 10.3.9.
We've installed Tiger on several G3 computers. Tiger doesn't slow or
bog the computer down. Using some real world testing (Photoshop etc)
we noted no big speed increases either. So whether you wish to
upgrade shouldn't be based on speed. There certainly are improvements
to Tiger that make it worthwhile.
