Powerbook Users

Apple has announced the latest OS will be available earlier than originally schedule. Apple consumers can get 10.6 (Snow Leopard ) this Friday. However, I found this little note on ClubMac's website:

Upgrade Information for Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard:
Please note, that only Apple OS X 10.5 Leopard users are eligible for the Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard upgrade.  Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger & earlier OS users will need to purchase either versions of the Mac Box Set.  Also, Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard requires a Mac with an Intel processor.

This means that I won't be standing in line at the Natick Collections getting the latest OS software. All my Macintosh computers are using the old processors. Maybe this is the time to start thinking of getting a new computer?
