    After getting past the bluesecreen of death, I finally got Leopard loaded and running on a Powerbook G4. It works, but the machine seems sluggish. Is Leopard really only for Intel Macs? Anybody else using it on a G4 or5?

    RAM has gotten pretty cheap lately. Check Crucial.com and you cab probably get 2 1GB sticks for around $50.
