    How likely do you think this is?
    I'm all about OSX, I run Tiger (10.4.11) but some recent games *Spore, for a start* have been made only for Leopard.
    Has there been news about this?

    As far as I can tell:

    The OSX Tiger community is much smaller, proportionally, than the XP users are to Vista. It's have been confirmed that SC2 will run on XP, but does anyone know about Tiger v. Leopard?

    It hadn't occured to me until downloaded the Beta System Checker, but I'm somewhat worried.
    I'm optimistic, but would not be surprised if I were disappointed.

    I just realized that too as I am running Tiger as well. I hope Blizzard has already put this into consideration :(

    Well, a lot of blizzard games are backwards compatible with operating systems. Just because it's blizzard i'd assume its a yes. But you never know...

    Im not sure what version of OSX first supported Intel CPUs, but Im sure that will be the absolute minimum there. I doubt Blizzard will support any PPC chip at this time :(

    Just get Leopard, man. It's worth it and you'll be in better shape anyways.
