[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1356215, member: 56379"] You couldn't possibly have checked e-Bay...I did just a few days ago...an full retail install disks were selling for $75-$100. This would be a bad assumption. Original prices for full retail OS X install disks prior to Snow Leopard (10.0, 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4, and 10.5) were in the $99 - $129 range...with Leopard 10.5 originally selling for $129. OS 10.5 may be an older OS...but it's the "latest & greatest" OS for some G4 and all G5 based computers...thus the demand remains high, and the price remains close to it's original selling price. - Nick [/QUOTE]
