Considering single proc G4 powerbooks, ibooks, mini's, and eMacs are running Tiger I'd say yer fine. ;)
BTW, the dual 1ghz Quicksilver was the last one. If you have a dual 1.42ghz you have a MDD (mirror door drive). :)

Absolutely...I run 10.4.2 on my old Sawtooth 400 Mhz G4 which I use as a web server, while I do my graphic production work on my Dual G5. It definitely helps if you have your RAM slots maxed out. I have 1GB in mine and the beachball still spins sometimes. OSX 10.4.2. is a bit of a RAM hog.

I thought I've also heard they run on some G3's.

I've never seen a dual 1.42 Quicksilver.
