well after a few transfers and a lot of "you have a G4 im not sure you can... oh well i guess you can" i got the answer, no we dont sell 10.5 anymore but he was kind enough to offer me snow leopard. LOL thanks?

Just make sure to buy the RETAIL version. What exact PPC Mac do you have,as there have been some?

10.5 installers are Universal binary, so you don't need to get a PPC specific one. However, you do need to make sure to get the retail disc, not a grey one that shipped with a specific computer. Unfortunately since they are not readily available you will often pay more for it (capitalism at work).
AppleCare does still sell 10.5 for the original retail price of $129, but availability is limited and not everyone you talk to may know how to find it on the store.
