Interesting! I had no problem running my update on the Lombard. I guess the real question is whether Tiger or Panther will run faster on the Lombard. I got the Lombard very inexpensively, so I can afford to put a little money into it to max out the ram to 512 megs. So, what's the consensus: will Tiger or Panther run faster on a maxed out Lombard? Thanking you in advance.
Scott Birdwell DeFalco's Home Wine & Beer Supplies P.S. FYI I removed the bottom housing on my iBook and played with the HD IDE ribbon, and, what you know. . . it now boots fine! (I'm writing this on the new upgrated laptop). The old HD seems fine, though. I guess it was somehow corrupted.
