If you have a retail version of the OS, then it should install fine on any
machine that supports the OS.
My advice is to buy OS X. It comes with OS 9 also. You can just install OS 9
if you prefer not to have OS X, but you have the latest if you want to
install that. I saw it very cheap at
<http://dealmac.com/articles/37274.html> OS 8.6 doesn't support iTunes, or
any of the i apps.
