Dude, WHY do you still have Tiger?! Most of the people using PowerPCs are even on Leopard.

I am a visual effects artist & animator

DEMO REEL


upgrading My OS right now would break several very expensive 3D & VFX programs requiring me to
$$upgrade them as well$$
Cant afford the Expense &I dont need the latest OS to be productive for my current Client Database.

Beside the point anyway.
The kindle fire does not need a separate "gateway" Application( ala itunes) on our PC's& Macs as it would
be a restriction for users who want to forego the "cloud" and sideload content IMHO.

Ahh, right. I understand. And very nice!

And I agree. I like that I can sideload stuff from any machine I have. It's easier. Even better, I can unload my doubleTwist content back onto any machine, you can't do that natively with iOS/iTunes. The only reason I even use iTunes is to grab iTunes U content for my Kindle.
