Quotes:
1)  "A quick ssh from my Linux machine revealed that only the GUI had
frozen; BSD/Darwin was chugging along fine underneath Panther's hood,
and I was able to do a safe restart from the remote terminal. Lacking
another machine and a network, I would have had to do a hard reset on
the Mac. For $129, you would hope to get a well-debugged product."

2) "Will Panther tempt Linux users? Sure! But I don't think there will
be widespread defections, given the price points of the Apple hardware
required to run it. A bigger question for Apple will be whether its own
faithful, the millions of users still on Mac OS 9, will find Panther
compelling enough to make the jump to the future of Mac OS."
