From: Travis Krall <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Could you give me an explanation why it won't. I don't have the CD and am interested it knowing what the reason is. I can't see why not having built in USB would be a factor for a computer not being able to run an OS.
It's not the fact that the USB is built-in or not that's the key, it's the ROM in machines that have built-in USB. Their ROM file is different from machines that don't.
Apple just uses the "USB built-in" requirement to easily communicate which machines have the right ROM for Panther and which don't. Hope that helps.

"You see, men are like bras. The really hot looking ones are never very supportive. The durable, practical ones are mostly boring. They're almost never big enough, and they're all pinchy. I go through them quickly, no matter how well I take care of them, and if I find one I really like I seem to end up wanting two. Free-speech feminist or not, you know you could use one, but they're all a bit confining, If you get one so comfortable that you don't know it's there, well, what's the point? And you always end up hooked. Men are just bras that can drive. That's Victoria's Secret." -- Liz Langley
