I'm primarily a TMax shooter, I have to say I appreciate the fine grain and sharpness. Every so often, I think about switching to Tri-X but I also have some TMax 100 that I use on occasion; as it turns out, the development times between TMY and TMX are identical in HC-110 dilution B up through 72 degrees, so I can process both at the same time. So as long as I have TMX lying around, I'll continue to use TMY.
Tri-X is supposedly more forgiving during processing in that it is more tolerant with time and temperature deviations during development. In actual practice, I've had little trouble, if any, with TMax.
