I have no idea if you can even get lower than Jaguar anymore but anyway I'm looking for a copy of Jaguar.

"Well Daed!" you might say, "Why would one need Jaguar when there are amazing updates like Panther and Tiger?" Read on pondering soul!

I'm going to need Jaguar specifically because it's the higher form of OSX my beloved G3 Pbook can take without me having to mess with XPost Facto. So! does anyone have this wonderful operating system? Also, I need it in CD-ROM form because back int he day, none of those crazy laptops had DVD drives! So yes! Get back to me!

Still have an ancient copy of OSX 10.1 if it even exists? Well then send it my way! I'll pay for it! Just let me know what you have!

A great place to grab Jag for cheap is OWC, or eBay.

Jag never shipped on DVD-ROMs, unless they are the system restore discs, and even then I believe it was CDs.

The Wallstreets are a nice machine if you have enough RAM and a big HD in them. And if the person who sold you one didnt really screw you over by selling you a dying machine. -.-

I absolutely love my Wallstreet. It's even a Wallstreet II so it isn't one of those ones without a backside cache (think it was the backside cache) I mean yeah it has a couple problems. Dead battery, OS9.2. But I mean aside from that it's a great machine.

I got your PM artful, I'll let you know if I decide to go that route. :)

Nope it did. I have a copy of it in my hands right now. Panther I believe was when they began shipping on DVD's mainly (and of course on to Tiger...).

Mine were in DVD form in OS X 10.3.

PM me, I have some 10.2.2 disks.
