That is something which has been lacking for a very long time, in Windows and Mac OS: having the OS add more features, yet still run as fast or faster than the last version, instead of being dragged down by feature bloat.

I was very excited by OS X, to the point of trying out the Public Beta, then Cheetah, then Puma, then Jag, in fairly rapid succession. All on unsupported desktop machines.
But so far, I haven't found anything in Panther which is enough to make me shell out for multiple licences for the whole household. So most of my machines are still on Jag, and happy with it.
I agree, but if it offers UI speed improvements, which each successive version of X has done so far, then I'm interested as I run older, slower unsupported systems. Each extra UI boost makes a noticeable difference- 10.1 thru 10.2 to 10.3 on a 7600 G3/400 PCI Rage128 or Beige G3/400 Rev B went from annoyingly slow to enjoyable to use.
