Why not? A lot of people still *have* to use OSX 10.3.9 in business because of hardware compatibility driver problems.

Besides, I think they might have pulled some Leopard tech into Tiger to achieve iLife 08, and it's just too much work to get that further down the OS chain to Panther. Some things like Core Data apps, which is a basic development method for Tiger apps, is not possible under Panther, so the whole app must be rewritten to use older not-so-good methods. Similarly there will be a lot of things that are not possible under Tiger with Leopard.

Why not? A lot of people still *have* to use OSX 10.3.9 in business because of hardware compatibility driver problems. Apple has a span of full driver compatibility only up to 2 years and so many in the prosumer or professional space has to stay put with older versions.

No, it's not really. And, I don't really care.
