Shawn,

Since the very first Mac, Apple has used a process known as "controlled obsolescence" and has decided that every new Mac should run only the version of Mac OS that it came with, or a later OS.


That is arrant BS. Macs run the earliest version of the OS that has the drivers for the hardware they're using. One of the basic tenets of the mac OS is that the user shouldn't have to juggle drivers for their hardware, that it should come with everything ready to run.
