[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1375730, member: 56379"] Technically...OS 10.4.11 is the most recent OS that can be installed on a 700mhz G4 iMac...since officially you need a minimum of an 867mhz G4 to install OS 10.5 Leopard. But...the good news is...there is a program called "Leopard Assist" which is supposed to help allow slower computers to install Leopard. The bad news...a black (not gray) 10.5 install disk will cost you $80-$100 from e-Bay. Regarding Snow Leopard & Lion. They both require an Intel cpu...which an iMac G4 does not have. HTH, - Nick [/QUOTE]
