hi all
are there 2 separate version of the tiger dvd?
i brought my DVD from PC world here today here in the UK of mac OSX
tiger 10.4
i thought it was a universal disk, only to discover when i booted the
cd up with c held down when i start the mac, and i let it go after it
spins, voice over said automatically finder, has new window. and it
brought up the contents of the cd itself, not the installation. Upon
clicking the isntall mac OS X icon it said it can't install on my
machine
why are chains like PC world here int eh UK selling software if they
don't know about it. i said to them guys i have a macbook, if they
don't know it is intel a macbook then why sell it. ok, PC world
means, ahem, PC's i guess ok fair enough but i'm sure i can sort this
out.
So, does mac OS tiger now come on a universal DVD disk i wonder now,
since ont he apple.com store sites for UK and ireland for example it
doesn't say which version you are getting just mac OS X tiger
I hope i can swap the disk even though i opened it at another PC
world store if i explain politely that i didn't know if indeed it is
the case, that 2 separate version one for power PC one for Intel
exist for the same disk
hopefuly i can do a straight swap then re-install my system only
putting ont he application parts i use not all the I life softwar
ethat i hardly use
regards to all, will
