Re: Mac question Technically I believe you are correct, although I remember during that transition that my G4 was able to receive free software updates through to 10.4 "tiger".... but when Leopard shipped it was an upgrade you had to purchase... much like the upgrade from "Leopard" to "Snow Leopard" cost a few bucks. I may be remembering this wrong... but at the time it made no sense to upgrade the G4 to Leopard for a price, as the Intel wave was obviously coming, and support for the old platform was quickly being taken off line. It's all ancient history now... but a G4 tower with a decent set of original specs with 10.4 on it, is still a useful machine for many many tasks... and the OS was rock solid for it's time.
