Additionally, Tiger occasionally turns off the function and volume keys on certain powerbooks. This has been confirmed by several users and does not appear to be fixed in the update.
Sigh.......

I ended up replacing the hard disk myself (warranty expired long time ago) and I was amazed at how the computer was even still booting off that disk - when I took it out and shook it i could hear parts floating around in there like the disk heads were literally hanging off.
Note that this really doesn't have anything to do with tiger - its a hardware failure (if your problem is the one I was having).

Speaking of mail..
Mail.app now doesn't support the httpmail plugin [sourceforge.net].
Again.
Just after it was updated.
How annoying.

The truth is, updating your OS can be a hassle, no matter what machine you use. Apple has a fairly good track record, but that doesn't mean it's always going to be painless.
I guess I could own a PC for gaming, instead of for doing real work like my Mac.
Or I could get a console and enjoy a wider selection of games, and not be pigeonholed into dozens of boring FPS rehashes (now you're in WWII! Now you're in WWII in space! Now you're in WWII in space as a SpaceNazi!) or a bunch of repetitive MMORPGS (Now you're fighting monsters for experience! Now you're doing it in space!).
Wouldn't it be nice if the PC gaming industry could be rebooted and start producing more interesting content instead of boring rehashes of the same game over and over? How many Diablo clones, Doom Clones and Warcraft clones can you take before your gag reflex kicks in?
