johnsingh07 Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 Hey guyz ive been waiting for leopard for ages:( but no one talks about how it will run on a powerbook:( ive gt the Al Powerbook 15" 1.67 GHz PPC with 512mb( and would you really need 1GB RAM?) THANX YOU !!! Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/66566-leopard-on-a-powerbook-plz-help-im-so-pissed/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevnaca Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 It will run really well on that machine. That being said, it will run much better with 1GB RAM. Leopard is actually quite a bit faster than Tiger. Hope that gives you the idea.

MasonMcD Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 Got a 1.55 GHz PB with 1 gig RAM. Runs great. Some graphical glitchy stuff every once in a while, some Safari stuttering, and I still don't see the iChat video effects, but other than that, pretty speedy.

scj312 Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 I would suggest making a clean install of Leopard to get full speed out of your machine.
