10.3 is the minimum OS that new iBooks can run. I'm writing this on a
1GHz iBook which came with the minimum OS for this machine: 10.3.4.

What app are you trying to run? Could there be an open source or
shareware equivalent?

It's a program in Python, PyDance. It *is* open source. But no one knows how to fix it. I don't know of any sufficiently functional equivalents.


Why do they do that to the machines? I'm buying a new computer, why can't I install whatever OS version I like on it? It's not like I'm trying to install the "no longer supported" OS 9 or anything. What difference would it make to them if someone wanted to run Jaguar on their machine, too?

Can it boot off an external Firewire drive running Jaguar?
