I bought a 2006 Powerbook G4 17" for $50. I would like to install Leopard 10.5. Where can I get a copy from?

Didn't know that. Sorry trying to help him get sales!
I know. You don't live near him so you could not have known. That's ok, no worries. We made a deal. He needed an iPhone that worked so I gave him my 3GS which was doing nothing more than being a media toy for my kids. He gave me some items in return, including that 1.33Ghz iBook G4 that's now in pieces and Leopard.

I'll send you a PATA hard drive with Leopard taken out of my 2005/6 Powerbook (actually the final revision Powerbooks were manufactured through 2006, but the model is really the "October 2005" or "late 2005" model indicator) -- let me know if you want to go that way. Easy enough to install in your P\B or clone it over.
