I got 10.2.8 to run on my Wallstreet, it had it on there when I got it, but didn't come with the CD, but it was VERY flaky, lots of mysterious lockups (couple times a day) and other problems. I thought I'd blow it away, do a clean install with 10.3 and perhaps solve the problems, but I have never gotten it to finish the install. I've tried it probably 30+ times with 4 different XPF versions.
Thus why I want something newer. I use a QS867 at work, but when I come home I have to use a thinkpad instead of what I want to run (my mac laptop) and I hate it. But I can only do this if it doesn't cost me anything right now. Wish Santa would drop a brand new aluminum laptop in my stocking, but will probably get coal instead. :( Rad... > -----Original Message----- > From: G-Books [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Clark > Martin > Sent: Thursday, November 25, 2004 3:17 PM > To: G-Books > Subject: Re: Lombard and OSX? > > > At 11:58 AM -0600 11/25/04, Rad Craig wrote: > >I am looking at buying a Lombard to replace my Wallstreet so I > can run OSX > >without problems.
