If you have a DVD drive for your Wallstreet it should work - if you only have a
CD-ROM drive then you are stuck in the same place I am....I'd love to put Tiger
on my Wallstreet but its only on DVD - allegedly there were Tiger CD's floating
around but I have never seen one - I found some downloads of what were supposed
to be the Tiger CD ISOs but they did not work.
Pulling the hard drive and putting it into a DVD capable machine seems to be
the only way to do it.
