This OS is nice and well enough designed for Intel processor machines, but for "Power-PC" processor Macs, it's a disaster. I have one of the last of the G5 iMacs (20") and it never crashed at all with Mac OS 10.4. But with 10.5, IT WILL CRASH EVERY TIME I use iTunes. Sometimes it crashes when I'm using iTunes, and sometimes it will crash after I use that program and quit the application. It doesn't seem to matter what I do. And yes, this is a legal, registered version of the OS. I have reinstalled it twice with no effect. Apple has some serious work to do to make this latest OS viable for their not-too-distant machines. Until they figure it out, users should avoid this OS.

I lost EVERYTHING on my hard drive because I didn't pay attention to the window during install. One of the first windows that comes up asks how you want to install... One of the options is to erase your hard drive, and then install the new operating system. This is the option selected unless you click the others. Beware, and pay attention.

This is by far the worst upgrade yet. I bought the most recent 10.5.4 and installed it a few days ago on my G5. It installed fine, including the X-tools. After having almost 10 years of rock solid performance from OS9, Panther, and Tiger this has been nothing but a nightmare. My G5, now with Leopard, randomly and continually crashes with Safari, Mail, iPhoto,and as well as many other programs. Even the disk utility First Aid hangs the computer. In two days now it has crashed probably twenty times. The force quit will not terminate hung programs and the computer has to be restarted with the power button. I have Disk Warrior on order to try to fix things but right now I'm seriously considering deinstalling this crap and going back to the stable Tiger. Fortunately, I have a G4 with Tiger that runs, with the same software, without problems. After being an ardent Mac supporter for many years It is very disappointing to see Apple come out with software like this.

I ordered and paid for Mac OS X Leopard Version 10.5.4.
I received Mac OS X Leopard Version 10.5.1.
Amizon screwed me as to the updated version which I find to be usable.
I am on dial-up so it takes forever to get up-dated.
