Looking for anything available 10.4 or higher, has to be compatible with a Powermac G5. My G5 doesnt like Leopard for some reason. Has to be full version as its a new hard drive.

PM or post price.

What if I burn my install disk for my G4, would that work?

Fuck Leopard.

I dont think so because my disc for my G4 is 10.1 and the lowest a G5 needs is like 10.3 or something.

I just bought a MBP that came with 10.4.10. I have the 2 discs that I won't need since I had the upgrade for Leopard. I honestly have to head out RIGHT now, but shoot me a PM and I'll answer it possibly tonight but more likely it will be the 26th.

I have Tiger on the install disc

I found some guy one ebay who was selling full versions for a PowerMac G5 for $25, could be a copy but as long as it works. With Leopard it installs up to about 75% then freezes and I have read that it happens a lot to the G5s.

Thanks though.

I hated Leopard

I'll wait until its optimized before I even consider it again.

Or until I get a 17" MacBook PRO (MAN, I want one!)

Formatted the iBook and put Tiger back on it - runs like a scalded dog...
