1 Leopard on 2 comps?

[daveman235]

Hi guys. I just bought a macbookpro, which came with leopard. I was wondering if anyone knows if i can use that leopard disc, that came with it, on my macbook running tiger. This way I have both comps running the same OS.

I know its illegal and i dont need to hear that repeated times....lets skip the legalities of the topic and answer the simple question of, " Will it work?"


Thanks guys for your help!

2 Comps

Yes, it will work, but....

Not necessarily, if you are talking about using the restore discs that came with your MBP, then they will not work - the machine must be the same model number as the one the discs came with.

If you got an upgrade disc, then yes, it should work.

1. It will NOT work.

2. Don't ask for advice about illegal activities. It is one thing to be ignorant, It is another thing to purposely break the law and ask for help doing it.


I will report this thread to moderators.
I am sure this thread will be closed shortly.

no it wont as long as no how to's are given. it is ok to talk about the theory of it as i have learned

i believe its an update disc that came with the comp..... the restore discs are seperate....


it says mac os x leopard and then underneath it, it says CPU drop in DVD


Let me know what you think...


Of course this is all theory

drop in disks probably would work, but as you know it is illegal.

If you have a regular or family pack, it should work. If you have an upgrade disk, it will only work for a specific machine.

Well, then lets talk about the forum rules then.....

It may work, it may not. If you feel the need to violate the EULA and try to get it working, please do not post a guide here.
