Yes and yes, but I think that it's probably a better idea to XPostFacto in retail 10.5.8 in if you REALLY want Leopard, and I see no reason why you want it on a G3. It *will* run poorly. I keep either OS9 or 10.3 on all of my G3s (which is a small sample size, seeing as how all I have is an iMac G3 and a Clamshell to go with it). A 350-400+MHz G3 running OS9 is a capable machine, on 10.3 its slow but usable, on 10.4 it's barely usable; I can't imagine it running well in 10.5.
On the other hand, this 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo Thinkpad running Linux is really laggy right now (worse than a last-model ibook on 10.3), writing this email in gmail.
