[QUOTE="Yorkmacman, post: 1158647, member: 161703"] Hi. Happy Christmas. :) I have an old imac 1.6 PowerPC G5 using 10.4.11 512 MB of RAM 1.6GHz I have got an ipod touch for Christmas but *ugger it turns out I need 10.5.8 or better to run it. On the apple page [url=http://support.apple.com/kb/SP517]Mac OS X 10.5 - Technical Specifications[/url] I seem ok for most of it but not sure about requirement of "DVD drive for installation". All I know is I can watch DVDs on my imac. Dumb question is: is that all I need for installation? Not sure what to look for in System Profiler. [/QUOTE]
