Does anyone one the board use this OS? Im getting really sick of Vista and I'm looking to switch OS's.

Or are there any other suggestions besides Leopard because I'm not buying a new computer.

I think you should try it and let us all know!

i just put osx 10.5 on my Dell XPS via Kalyway (http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=63637) much cheaper then buying a mac computer

I've been dual booting XP and ubuntu on my laptop for awhile now and my main computer has just ubuntu. I reallly like it but be warned that parting from windows means parting from a lot of software that you may be dependent on. You could do one of three things to get started with ubuntu to try it before you make a commitment. The first is get a live cd and just boot off the live cd to test it out. The second is the new version of Ubuntu has an option to install ubuntu like you would a program right into your windows partition. Just insert the CD in windows and it will do the rest. The third option is to make 2 partitions on your hard drive and install ubuntu on one of them and keep windows on the other and just dual boot it. Hope that helps!
