What I read on 10.6 (Snow Leopard) it is suppose to be for the Intel chips only. The G4 and G5 are left out in the “cold”.

They already left my iMac G4 out in the cold. OS X 10.5 doesn't work on G4's below 867MHz and my 17" iLamp G4 is 800 MHz.

I am running Leopard on my 17" PowerBook Pro 2.5 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo and love it.

I had the same thing - and was salivating over Leopard for so long before it came out that when they sprung that 867MHz requirement on me I jumped and got a 20" iMac to be able to use Leopard.

I gave my G4 to my daughter for the granddaughters - they love it. When I was visiting them recently and tried to use it, I found that I am thoroughly addicted to the 20" screen and to the expandable text windows in the Leopard version of Safari.
