Hi all,

I have an iBook G4 (PPC processor) with OS X 10.3.9 Panther, and would like to upgrade to Tiger or Leopard as Apple does not support Panther anymore.

What would you recommend as the minimum requirements so that the system doesn't run too slow realistically?
I assume there would not be incompatibility issues with such an upgrade, at least with the Apple software that came with the iBook.

Some people seem to have performance issues with Leopard on new Macs more powerful than mine. But a person used Disk Utility under Applications and that solved the problem for them.

I was thinking to wait until next year that Snow Leopard comes out. That is when Apple may presumably stop supporting Tiger. However initial info says that Snow Leopard will work only on Intel Macs :-(
(Not to mention the amount of processing power and RAM required, prehaps more than the full RAM on my IBook).

Thanks.
