[QUOTE="Chamorro, post: 26227"] You can go straight to 10.2 (Jaguar) or 10.3 (Panther). Just try to find "full install" discs; these are the ones that you see boxed up by themselves in software stores. The Software Update app will take you up to the latest version of the OS (10.2.8 or 10.3.3) for free. You don't really need a separate utility app, the OS X discs will have Disk Utility - you can use this to erase/partition/do some repairs if necessary. If you want to keep using your "old" OS you'll need to upgrade 8.6 to OS 9.2.2. You can do this with "upgrade" discs or with "full install discs". Post again if you need more info. [/QUOTE]
