There's exponentially more on Intels running Snow Leopard, and more every day.

I'd love jumping to 10.5 or 10.6 - but I have enough docs in Pagemill

I like my G5 tower more than my computer lab's Mac Minis. It is faster, has
more RAM and hard disk space, runs PPC apps natively, resulting in huge
speed boosts, is more servicable, can use VGA and ADC monitors natively with
the right video card(s), more reliable, uses slightly more standard and

That exact G5 is far slower than even the base-model Mac Mini of today in
Geekbench scores, and you're not even considering that only with Snow Leopard

My understanding is that Intel Macs are not installable from any retail Mac OS
X Tiger install set, and especially not from a PowerPC Mac mini restore set.

Well, that is definitely a given (a PPC-only install DVD).
But there exist 10.4.x universal installers. I am pretty sure I have
one, somewhere.

LEM is the best place.
ePay is always a possibility.
Even with 10.5 Server, the installation DVDs were Universal. At least
the one I bought is Universal.

All retail Leopard sets are universal. This was not the case for Tiger because
upon Tiger's initial release Intels didn't exist. Since every

That's because 10.4 was never released as a Universal. It had a Retail disc,

Save Tiger for the fearless Sawtooth. Close your eyes and jump all the
way to Snow Leopard. You'll never regret it.
Tiger is still a superb OS, but Snow Leopard is not only superior,
it's breathtakingly beautiful. As an added advantage, if you know your
way around in Tiger, you won't feel
On retail disc? As far as I knew no retail 10.4 was intel/universal.
There were, of course, 10.4 Intel discs included with Intel Macs, if
