Hi,
I don't have Leopard yet and am still debating if it's worth upgrading my 1.5GHz G4 PowerBook to it.
Anyway, one of the deciding factors will be - can you boot up from a Time Machine backup?
Currently, I use SuperDuper! to (occasionally) back up my hard drive to a partition on my external firewire HD, and I can boot my laptop up from this should my hard drive or whatever go pear-shaped, or restore my entire hard drive if needed (and don't say it won't happen - because it did.). When the computer's started up from the FWHD, it runs just as it did when I last did the backup, albeit slightly slower.
Will a Time Machine backup from Leopard allow me to boot the computer up into Leopard from my external HD should something prevent me from booting up from the internal disk?
Thanks
