Mac OS X Tiger
Mac OS X Tiger (version 10.4) is the fifth major release of macOS, Apple Inc.'s desktop and server operating system for Macintosh computers. It was released to the public on April 29, 2005, for a price of $129.95. Mac OS X Tiger was a significant update that introduced a number of new features and improvements over its predecessor, Mac OS X Panther.
