Officially: To use Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger, your Macintosh needs: • A PowerPC G3, G4, or G5 processor • Built-in FireWire • At least 256 MB of RAM • DVD drive (DVD-ROM), Combo (CD-RW/DVD-ROM) or SuperDrive (DVD-R) for installation • At least 3 GB of free disk space Unofficially, any G3 with or without Firewire, and any older PPC Mac upgraded to a G3 or G4 CPU. XPostFacto can help with installation of Tiger onto unsupported Macs. In my experience any older Mac can benefit from Tiger if it has sufficient RAM and HD space. A Radeon graphics card helps a lot too. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
