Well, I should clearify that...
Darwin 8.0.1 is about as polished as Darwin 7.0.1 was. (i.e. not at all)
These are Apple releases, and their efforts go into Mac OS X instead...

The difference lies in how much support can be found in the OpenDarwin
project, and they are currently offering OpenDarwin 7.2.1 (but not 8.x)

And some of the reasons for *that*, can be found in the story above and
at the personal pages of Rob Braun: http://www.opendarwin.org/~bbraun/

BTW;
I find Mac OS X 10.3 better than Mac OS X 10.4 too, but that's just me.
