While it is generally very true that we are not befuddled by the
same issues one expects from Microsoft installs I would always
suggest the superior install is a fresh install on a freshly
formatted harddrive. This is especially true for major iterations
of Operating Systems (such as 10.3, 10.4, and 10.5). Along with
that no matter what OS platform one should indeed be properly
backed up before those installs. Finally, if you are running
specialized software advance research to determine compatibility or
the updating of those softwares to be compatible is worthy of waits
until all is in order.
With all of that said. I will do an archive and install of 10.5,
rather than upgrade the 10.4.x and I won't bother to back up prior
to the install.

Yah, we are not talking about Microsoft here. Call it MS
bashing or whatever, but their track record speaks for itself when
it comes to disastrous upgrades. I wouldn't touch Vista with a
fifty foot pole.
Take Care

No you will not likely need to buy any new hardware or software.
In all the years I have been working with Apple the only upgrade
I ever did was memory.

Hi folks,
There has been a lot written recently about whether or not
people should upgrade to Vista. So i was wondering the same
about upgrading to Leopard? I am going to, but will I need to
buy new printers or scanners etc and new software etc?
Thanks
James
