Hi,

I've got an EMAC running as a server for my small business.

Panther is coming out, and I'll buy it and toss it on my laptop for the fun of it, but I wouldn't mind someone else's opinion on whether or not to put it on my server.

I'm running the lastest Jag update, and the box is absolutely stable. Is there something, as far as my server is concerned, that will make panther worth it?

thanks
tim

Panther's improvements are mostly user centric (better interface speed, improved interface) so it wouldn't make an awful lot of difference to a server.

However, it does boot much faster and offers better Windows networking (SMB) integration.
