[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1349221, member: 56379"] You cannot "push" your Powermac G4 any further...even if you wanted to. OS 10.5.8 is the "newest" OS you can install on this computer. Let me be very clear...you CANNOT install OS 10.6 (Snow Leopard) or OS 10.7 (Lion) because your Powermac G4 does not have an Intel cpu (it has a G4 cpu). OS 10.6 & 10.7 require an Intel cpu. 10.5.8 is the highest you can go with this computer! - Nick p.s. With a Powermac G4 (450mhz)...technically you aren't even supposed to be able to run OS 10.5.8 (Leopard)...since officially from Apple you need a minimum of an 867mhz cpu. So you must have used a program like "Leopard Assist" in order to get OS 10.5.8 to install on your Powermac G4. [/QUOTE]
