Tiger’s tips, suite:

Tiger now takes screenshots in the PNG format. It’s far lighter than the PDF of Mac OS X 10.3.

And it’s none too soon.

Various effects won’t be available for everyone. For instance, when you add Widgets on Dashboard, there is a superb “droplet” effect if you card supports CoreImage (64MB VRAM minimum).

Copying this here so I can try to remember it when I choose which Mac I buy. Not just for Dashboard’s droplets, but for every effect you’ll lose in the future if you haven’t got the best video card in the world.
