hi andreas, you can get whatever mac you want, as the sdk and os are independent, to some extent. that is, you can be running 10.5, but build applications that target 10.4 or earlier. so, for osg, this means building your app against the 10.4 sdk (included as part of the development tools). i've been building and using osg and osg apps on 10.5 for months now, without problems...
