Hi! I've got on old Mac laptop which operates on OS 10.2.8, but my printer needs at least OS 10.3.9.

How do I download the new operating system onto the laptop? Or do I have to buy one?

Any help on this really appreciated.
 
I thought you could update it on the apple website???

I think you can do that..... at least that is what friends have done.
 
gotta buy it

the first number is family (all current unix-based apple OSes (OSX) are 10.x.x)
the second numbers are major releases
and the last number is minor releases , similar to service packs for windows

you have to buy it, it cant be downloaded

Thats not needed info as they hardly sell panther or tiger anymore

Adam 60. What is your mac computer.

If it's a 867MHz G4 or more with 512MB or more with the ability to play DVDs you can upgrade to latest leopard. If you have the processor upgrade the ram to 512mb or even 1gb. If your on G3 you will need tiger which is not sold anymore
