OS X Leopard Developer Preview?

[miles1013]

Hey guys so recently I was digging through my storage and I came across a Developer Preview DVD of OS X Leopard! I have done some digging on the web just to get some back story for this disc but I cannot find much of anything, the most I have found is a Wiki page basically saying that it was given out at WWDC '07. I can't find any dumps for it or really any other information, what intrigues me is that I remember picking this disc up at a thrift store in San Fransisco when I lived in California and even when I bought it I couldn't find anything on it then either. Is this something rare that I have or just something that is so old there isn't really much info on it out there, any insight would be great! Thanks!!! Pictures are attached

Wow! Have you installed it? And would you be able to archive it to the Macintosh Garden?
There is one build on there but I don’t think it’s the same one as this. Unfortunately most that stuff is probably locked in the betaarchive, which is essentially just lost since access to it is impossible.

You should post this in the PPC subforum. I am there all the time and it’s actually a very active forum. I didn’t see this until today (in fact I thought 10.6 snow leopard was the earliest OS X subforum).

Active because we all know Apple gave up on PPC too soon which caused an uprising and thus we have a very large community of PowerPC mac users because PowerPC lives !

Hi @miles1013,

Do you still have this and have you uploaded anywhere online at all?
