iBook g4 Tiger or Leopard

I know this may seem moot, but I recently purchased a "Mid-2005" iBook from Mac Pro Online. The iBook shipped with 10.4.11 installed and an OS X 10.5 disc to install (or use as a backup disc) if I wanted.

I am just wondering the Pros/Cons of installing Leopard on my machine.

Here are the pertinent specs for the iBook I purchased:

1.33GHz PowerPC G4 512K L2 cache @1.33GHz
512MB memory (DDR333 SDRAM) Upgradable to 1.5GB **(I upgraded the RAM to 1.5)
12.1-inch TFT Display 1024x768 resolution
ATI Mobility Radeon 9550 32MB DDR video memory
40GB Ultra ATA hard drive Combo Drive (DVD-ROM/CD-RW)

Complete stats here: http://www.everymac.com/systems/appl...4_1.33_12.html

I used Macs all though college, but have been relegated to the PC world of corporate America. I am trying to recapture some of the Mac Magic. Any help on this Tiger v. Leopard issue would be appreciated.


Thanks
