You cannot put an Intel processor in your G4, for a lot of reasons.
Here are Apple's system requirements for Leopard, OS X 10.5:
Mac OS X 10.5 requires:
• A Mac computer with an Intel, PowerPC G5, or Power PC G4 (867 MHz
or faster) processor
• 512 MB memory or more
• A DVD drive for installation
• 9 GB of available disk space or more
• Some features require a compatible Internet service provider, fees
may apply.
• Some features require Apple's .Mac service; fees apply.
Notes
• Computers with processor upgrade cards are not supported with Mac
OS X. Although Mac OS X may install and appear to work normally on
some computers with third-party microprocessor upgrade cards, Apple
does not provide technical support or assistance for Mac OS X when
used in this way. Contact the manufacturer of your microprocessor
upgrade card for support information.
• Check out the Mac OS X Leopard Technical Specs website for
additional details on Leopard requirements
(http://www.apple.com/macosx/techspecs/
)
• You should also read the Before You Install document included on
your Mac OS X installation disc.
If your Mac meets or exceeds all of the basic hardware requirements,
you can install and run Leopard without changing a thing. On the other
hand, since Snow Leopard will not support your G4's PPC processor, you
will not be able to upgrade to 10.6 in September.
