Thanks for the reply, But I think you missed the gist of my question. I want and need a new intel based iMac so I am going to purchase one soon. That being said, I want the new iMac to still be able to boot 10.4. I don't want to buy a new imac that comes shipped with 10.5 only.
When Apple announces the release of the new OS, I think I will still have some time to purchase an imac that boots in 10.4 but I'm not sure how long that time period will be. --- Lee Larson <leelarson at mac.com> wrote: > On Oct 8, 2007, at 1:02 PM, David M asked: > > > So how long can I wait to be sure that I receive a > mac > > that will boot 10.4? > > Your PowerBook G4 should run Mac OS X 10.4 just > fine.
