[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1557617, member: 56379"] Unless you REALLY need OS 10.5...and since your iMac has a core 2 duo cpu...it would be less expensive to upgrade to OS 10.6. An OS 10.5 (on e-Bay the last time I checked) will usually cost around $75-$100. An OS 10.6 install disk directly from Apple costs $19.99. OS 10.6 is a much better OS version for your computer as well.:) Of course if you have an important reason to install OS 10.5...then you're going to have to purchase it. Does this mean that your optical drive does not work? If so...then you need to have the internal drive replaced...or purchase an external optical drive. - Nick p.s. FYI...Apple no longer sells OS 10.5 install disks. [/QUOTE]
