Snow Leopard works fine too but there are problems after updating to 10.6.3 and later. In the 10.6 there are more programs (like screencapture, imagepreview, etc) who needs QE by default, so you can`t use them. The using of the system without QE/CI:
-Microsoft Office works fine
-Movies works fine ONLY with QuickTime and you need to install Perian, MPEG and WMV codecs first
-YouTube works too, but sometimes the HD movies doesn`t work fine
-Forget about watching DVD movies
-Forget about iWork and iLife
-Forget about Gaming
-Forget about ALL the software that needs QE/CI
You can use iLife 08, but not iLife 09 since iLife 09 requires Quartz.
And you can run iWork 08 without Quartz, but you need my patch, but forget iWork 09.
