There are ways to hack Leopard (10.5)'s installer to make it talk to a 533-MHz G4, which would open the field for apps greatly, but I cannot vouch for its overall performance. I know that others on this list have put Leopard on older Macs. Perhaps they'll chime in wrt its performance.


I have Leopard on my DA Dual 533 ... with a ATI Radeon 9800Pro ... works fairly well. It is "slower" than TIger, but with a Firmtek Seritek SATA PCI card and SATA drives, performance is quite good for me.

My iSight cam is jerky, and works much better on my QS 2002 Dual 1GHz ... but it works.
