[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1160536, member: 56379"] If you REALLY need to interface your iPhone 4 with a Macintosh computer...loading Leopard on your G5 is the LEAST expensive route...since it's pretty hard to find a used Macintosh G5 computer (iMac or Powermac) with Leopard (OS 10.5) already loaded on it for under $125 bucks. On the other hand...getting an Intel based Mac would be better. But again...this would cost a lot more than a Leopard upgrade for your G5...since you probably can't find an Intel based Mac for less than $300-$350 (and then maybe have to add another $29) for a 10.6 install disk (if the used Intel Mac didn't have 10.6 already on it). - Nick [/QUOTE]
