I like Jag a lot. I don't mind Aqua, although I think it's overkill for an
interface (it really gulps and swallows system resources -- I think the OS
X bloat is mostly from that).
My only complaint is some of my classic AppleTalk servers won't talk to it
(in particular my netatalk-based NetBSD server, ironically a Mac IIci, gets
an "unsupported AFP version" error). However, it works in the Chooser if I
fire up Classic. The worst part was to do filesharing with my Apple
Network Server, I have to use SMB!!! (runs to toilet retching)
