I bought Tiger on release night (yes, I am THAT much of a geek) and I don't regret it. Admitadly, the first install was a little pear-shaped, but after a reinstall a few days later, things were all good.
I've been using the same install since then, without a problem. Spotlight and Dashboard are awesome features and I cannot live without them now. I also like the new Mail.app.I find myself lost when I go back to using 10.3.9 on the G5's at uni.
My PowerBook is my only computer and it gets an absolute work out every day from me and is still running solid. A lot of bugs were fixed with 10.4.2 and 10.4.3 is said to be around the corner.
My advice, just go for it. I agree with Disko, its totally worth the cash.
