[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 885127, member: 8287"] I think you took my post wrong as I never said 10.5 will only run on Intel Macs. BUT only the retail version of 10.5 will install on a PPC Mac. The Gray DVDs of 10.5 that come with Macs are for Intel Only. They never made a 10.5 DVD that shipped with a Power PC machine. What was later said in answer to the poster who tried to say "10.6" might work on a Power PC. It will not. It's right in the URL on Apples page on Snow Leopard. Snow Leopard ACCORDING TO APPLE needs an Intel CPU. I was not the one that said 10.5 only worked on Intel hardware. [/QUOTE]
