James dont' recall how old your Mac is, but there is a point where it
is more cost effective to replace the machine instead of repairing it.
So, hope you get something you'll enjoy and can grow into over the
next few years.

after the disk.

I was aware that that would come up. Unfortunately, what I said worked

This might sound like a stupid question, but I have a copy of Leopard from

What are you trying to do. As I said, the retail will not work in a
MBP because retail does not contain certain special drivers.
