How? What mechanism did it use to force you to do what? Upgrade to Tiger?
AFAIK, there are many doing well with OS 8&9, Puma, Jaguar, and Panther. I
guess the Apple goons missed me. If you don't need ARD 2.x's features, how
did they "make" upgrade to Tiger; thus, forcing ARD 2.x on you? If ARD 1.x
runs on Panther, why did YOU choose to move to Tiger?
