[QUOTE="baggss, post: 999449, member: 6762"] Leopard Retail is $129. If someone is selling it for $185 they are ripping you off. Look on E-Bay or Craigs List and you will find it for less than $100 (Leopard will work fine on your machine and you can update to 10.5.8). The $29 Snow Leopard disc is simply an upgrade disc NOT a full system installation disc. Intel users have to have loaded 10.5 and then purchased 10.6 to get there OR just bought a new machine with 10.6. Upgrade tp 10.5 and the wireless keyboard and mouse will work fine, as will pretty much all other accessories. If it says 10.5, it needs 10.5. Oh, and STOP calling Best Buy for anything. Their Mac service absolutely blows and they are about as clueless about them as a dead houseplant. Find a knowledgeable Mac dealer in your area, go to an Apple store or ask here. Using the words "Best Buy" in any reasonable Mac discussion will get you laughed off the board. [/QUOTE]
