Maybe try this? It's in Hoogeveen, not sure if it's still available, but it's an iBook G4 with a retail copy of Leopard included. Even with the iBook, the current bid is still lower than any of the eBay prices. http://www.marktplaats.nl/a/computers-en-software/laptops-apple/m1033634532-apple-ibook-g4.html

Never mind, shortly after I posted that it sold. Unless it was OP.

i'm not the biggest fan of ebay. i was more looking for a webshop that still sells leopard.

With software of nearly 9 years of age, you're probably going to have to buy it off of eBay or similar sites.

^^^This.

OP, it's like you are asking what shops still sell Windows 95.

eBay

Maybe Amazon might have a used copy or two from their seller network.

For less scrupulous methods, we can't help you.

I've managed to get a copy from Apple when calling their AppleCare line. Just be perfectly honest about using it on an old machine and let them know how important it is to you. There may be a shipping charge but they will send you black and white non system specific disks.

When was the last time you were able to do this?

I ask, because some time ago it was mentioned here that they had run out of copies.

I'd say a little over a year ago

But they may ask for shipping

How much for the PM8600/250?

Hmm rough quote of maybe €1000? Parts + value + upgrades + effort + love. It's an extension of my personally at this point.

So…roughly about the value of my Quicksilver.
