Who else is going back to Tiger?

Definitely not me. Leopard is running at least 2x faster than Tiger on my-year old Powerbook. It is like I got a CPU upgrade, really.

I did an upgrade from Tiger not a clean install mind you.

Not a chance...

I took the plunge with Leopard, and normally never do on a .0 release however I am amazed at how stable the whole OS is overall. Have not even had incompatible programs at all. On the Macbook, boot times and sleep times are much better than they were as well - so that is also a major reason too.

When I go to any of the Tiger machines it does feel like I am stepping back in time a bit!

The power off problems you were experiencing are called a "kernel panic". This could mean you have a hardware problem with your machine. Possible something is overheating (it might have only happened in leopard because leopard might be pushing the machine more than Tiger).

has the ambient temperature in the room been lower over the last 36 hours?

I dont believe it is /WAS a hardware problem , it is NOT over heating at least from what I am seeing with fan speed and temperatures from iStat pro. The machine is a 4 month old macbook 2.1 Intel Core duo 2 , with 2 GB of Ram and 85 GB of free hard disk space so it is hardly being brought to its knees.

I believe it is software incompatibility related, it could be my belkin external USB hub and external modem related though.

Still monitoring things

I've got both installed in separate partitions. I've been going back and forth, keeping Tiger as my main. That's primarily because I can't repair permissions in Leopard, and I don't want it to have newly loaded stuff and then get too unstable. I also can't get Time Machine to work with my drive (apparently this is an issue with Lacie SAFE models and they are working on a fix). Leopard is quicker in things like Safari, but overall I think it is a marginal improvement. I'm going to keep Tiger as my main OS and keep adding updates to Leopard until everything is working well, and then totally move over at some time in the future.
