Hi, I am using a Powerbook G4 for music production with Jaguar 10.2.8.
Is there any reason I should upgrade to Panther or Tiger?
I have heard that Panther causes several problems for making music. Can someone tell me what is best?

Definately switch to Panther. It's quicker than Jaguar to say the least. I also use a powerbook G4 and Run Logic, Peak, And Live on it. There are no issues to my knowledge that affect me. I'm using 10.3.5 and external FW 400 drives. Also in Panther the MIDI Server was reworked and there is more stability and reiiability with MIDI, and also expanded instruments contained within the audio midi setup. I say go for it, if you are into that kind of thing.

In this months issue of Electronic Musician there is a great article about optimizing the System for use in audio. I highly highly recomend you check this article out and follow it's instructions. It can make a significant difference.

all the best
