yes, when you purchase those systems originally, they come with the
media you need to run them and if they are pre tiger for instance and
you can upgrade, apple have te cds for it.

Hey. I didn't think that apple sold tiger anymore? I didn't really
think it would come with anything to be honest, but even on its own, a
g3 400, 576mb of ram and a 40gb harddrive for £4.99 isn't bad imo.

Hey all.
Picked up a imac that admitidly was a bit of a gamble for £4.99 and
apon inspection, I see that it meets the requirements for tiger.
However, my tiger disk is a dvd and according to google this poticula
mac only has a cd drive.
Can anyone think of any way that I can install tiger on this mac? I
was thinking of using a usb to ide adaptor to attach a usb dvd rom,
but i'm not sure if it will boot from usb plus its only 1.1 so things
are going to be painfully slow.
I'll be very greatfull for any ideas.
Cheers.
