Apr 11, 2013 - Before erasing the hard drive, make sure you have a minimum of two. Separate media, and preferably made with two different backup programs. If you plan to install Snow Leopard (Mac OS X 10.6), or any previous. Note that when you begin the install process, you will need to download about 4 GB of.

I wonder about that too. Snow Leopard is being treated differently from almost every other cat update. Snow Leopard hasn't been solicited yet. I would expect at least one more point update to Leopard if they hold to pattern, a point update to the previous cat usually shows up about a week after the release of a new cat.

If you take out the 'bringing minor tweaks' part, then it reads as simply (paraphrased), 'The last update before Snow Leopard,' which is what I think they meant to say. Actually, I think the article is trying to say 10.5.8 is possibly the *very last ever* Leopard update.

Which a lot of posters here disagree with. I think there will be 10.5.9 around the time/ soon after Snow Leopard is released. Then, there could be a 10.5.10 early next year as the *very last ever so long and goodbye* Leopard update. Just my humble onion.

No way we make it to.10. They want rid of PPC.

If we got one more. Release I would be half surprised. I think there will be a few more 'point' upgrades.certainly 9, possibly 10, doubtfully 11, positively not 12. My guess is.9, but there will be security updates forever just because (as has been pointed out) it IS the last version to work on a PPC. They are still issuing security updates for 10.4 (because it was the last one that would run on a ≤800 MHz machine, of which there are TONS).

Too many companies still rely on their trusty G4 towers. They invested money in them, and they still work well, plus they're the only ones without spending $2500+ that will hold more than one internal hard drive.
