hey, got my imac, finding it okay if not brillaint.

just wondering if anyone knows where i could pick up Tiger OS X on CD? seeing as panther wont let me use my iphone, which is limiting my use of this computer severly at the moment.

ive tried ebay but they come few and far between, i bought one other day but its an intel version which i am told wont work.

would love it if anyone has a spare lying around they are willing to part with (for cash obviously)

On eBay you need the "Full Retail Version" i.e. an auction like this (http://cgi.ebay.com/Apple-Macintosh-OSX-Tiger-10-4-6-full-retail-install_W0QQitemZ140213104733QQihZ004QQcategoryZ80258QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem). Alternatively one for PPC Macs like this (http://cgi.ebay.com/Mac-OS-X-10-4-Tiger-Install-DVD_W0QQitemZ250221351284QQihZ015QQcategoryZ80258QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem).

To be perfectly honest you'll probably be better off buying Leopard.

This thread is borderline marketplace material, and since the OP is not eligible I'm closing it.

Eraserhead's advice is sound though... ;)

There seem to be a few available here (http://search.ebay.co.uk/search/search.dll?from=R40&_trksid=m37&satitle=mac+os+x+retail), too...
