Just thought I'd report my DA Dual 533 Xbench timings which showed a  
15% decrease in overall score from Tiger (35.80 / 10.4.11)  to Leopard  
(30.53 / 10.5.8). (35.80-30.53)/35.80 * 100 = 14.7%

I chose Leopard just the same, to be in better sync with my QS 2002   
Dual 1GHz which is also running 10.5.
