consolation Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 That's as far as 10.2 upgrades to; 10.x.x upgrades are free but 10.x you have to buy. Or, you know, the other thing...

madalive8 Posted September 22, 2007 Author Share Posted September 22, 2007 hmm so since im gonna go out and buy it, can this g4 handle 10.4.10? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/64027-powerbook-g4/#findComment-452948 Share on other sites More sharing options...
consolation Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 No problem, just be aware that there are no universal 10.4 dvds. i.e. if you get one 2nd hand that came with an intel mac it won't boot. However, all the commercial releases are for PPC and are fine.

Lactobacillus P Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 There are 10.4.x PPC install dvd's out there, even on demonoid, that will work on your G4. Upgrading to the latest 10.4.10 is no problem on that G4. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/64027-powerbook-g4/#findComment-453124 Share on other sites More sharing options...
