Well it is just a CDRW, am I gonna be able to put Tiger on this thing?

Yes you can install Tiger on it, though you will need the CD version of Tiger that is only available direct from Apple. A CDRW drive will not be able to read the DVD that Tiger normally ships on.

Just make sure you have enough RAM for Tiger. 512mb will do you well.
