I can't read everything 'cause my glasses with prism optic are broken and I see everything twice... but to see huge scrolling PMs with text quotes in it is enough to see that there must be some problems. I didn't had specific problems with Hagar, some slaps or short bans in the IRC, never mind.

To the iPC image, on my system only the X1600 drivers won't work and the Keyboard Preference pane is wrong... that's all I know and it's easy to fix. (I have you to send the fixed files, Hara Taiki... sorry was a bit busy) But it's sure, not every image works completely on every computer, they hardware configurations are much too different. I've tested more than 25 images from 10.4.5 to 10.5.6 and the only ones which were running 100% without problems were myzar's 10.4.6 and Leo4All V3. All others had some kind of errors including some which could't be fixed easily. The installation menu of iPC is fantastic, it's one of the best I've ever seen. And some fixes will follow in the next ppf, but that's another topic.

Interesting, Hara Taiki, you said '3 years is a long time'... true, in March 2009 it will be 3 years for me too - only. I have a feeling I'm using OSx86 for so much longer. In comparison, Windows XP I used regularly from 02/2004 to 05/2006 - I know it exactly, I switched to XP because I used it for Audio editing. But then I switched to Tiger, and it was so great that I used it in 1280x1024 in 60 Hz on a CRT monitor. Gladly I was used Amiga Interlace (25 Hz), so it wasn't too difficult. It needed some time as patches for the X1600 were available, and it wasn't diffictult to apply them. In these times Insanelymac was really informative!
