Lots of updates lately - that's generally good, although I think that 10.4.6 made my system a bit less stable.

i've been very happy with all the versions of Tiger on all 5 of my machines, and 10.4.6 seems to be the most reliable yet. Can't wait for this next update, I hope it does something about energy saving settings. A couple of my systems, including my G5, have trouble going to sleep when they're supposed to

That "inaccurate calculator" bit intrigues me?

*Enters '1 + 1' into calculator*

*Hits 'Equals'*

*Calculator returns result of '3'*

You'd think calculator would be a pretty easy app to get right...

i agree... a computer IS a calculator so that app should be pretty easy to nail.

Y'know, my iMac G5 has been having some sleep issues lately as well. Never associated it with that update, but it probably was around that same time...

I read about such things once, but don't worry we're talking about a difference of 0,00000000000000000000001 or so (not really sure about the amount of zeros)

These differences are really no big deal for almost any user, but they can make a difference in science (especially space and such), unfortunatly, one of the Powermacs (and other macs) selling points.

I'm sick of how buggy Mac OS X is, but nobody seems to notice because they're too busy claiming how "superior" everything is.

I complained about the calculator back in November: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=160617

They're just now getting to it?

There are also tons of other bugs that aren't getting fixed, but nobody seems to notice or care.
