Snow Leopard from Tiger...?

2009-09-06 Thread Bill Spencer
Hi there: I am hearing rumors that the $29 disk will install on any Intel Mac, regardless of whether there's a previous installation of Leopard. Anybody know if that's true? *** Bill Spencer in Maryland IMac Core Duo 2.4 ghz/1 g RAM/Snow Leopard IMac Core Duo 1.83 ghz/1 g RAM/Tiger

That does appear to be the case. Although to do so would be a violation of the EULA... --ryan Sent from my iPod Touch On Sep 6, 2009, at 8:30, Bill Spencer wspen...@jhu.edu wrote: Hi there: I am hearing rumors that the $29 disk will install on any Intel Mac, regardless of whether there's

Yup, that about sums it up. Apple figures that if you never bought Leopard, then you never paid the $130 for it, and therefore should buy the way more expensive Box set Snow Leopard. It'll upgrade Tiger anyways, though, so I don't know how they're going to enforce this... -Elliott

Protip: Apple is a hardware company. I certainly don't have any moral qualms about using my SL disc to do a clean install on a Tiger machine. The alternative is frankly stupid. -- Jarett T. DeAngelis, MS Sr. IT Support Engineer Distributed Support Services, College of Arts and Letters

IMO the best way to do this is a clean install. It works on Tiger, but it's not designed for it. Back up your data, insert disc, start machine, fire up Disk Utility, reformat, install. :) -- Jarett T. DeAngelis, MS Sr. IT Support Engineer Distributed Support Services, College of Arts

ATT is the reason why I don't have an iPhone. Based on my usage of and experience with my iPod Touch, I'm quite sure I would love the iPhone's hardware and interface. But I'm not willing to downgrade both my wireless connectivity and customer service by going from Sprint to ATT... --ryan
