Leo is a paid upgrade so I think not. It's $129 and if you feel you MUST upgrade then by all mean do but Tiger is such a rock solid OS I wouldn't upgrade unless I had to. I wouldn't run Leo or SL unless I had to on my Mac Pros... I love Tiger and they got it so damn rock solid it was really hard for me to give up... plus, I had to update some of my plugs which cost me.cartwheelpro wrote:I have a newer Macbook running 10.5 and a Macpro

I was wondering what the PT WA meant... Washington State?

Re: macbook to macpro
I have had tried to use a set of system disks from one Mac to up date another Mac I owned and the disks did not work on the other Mac.
Just MHO I would leave the MacBook as is and upgrade the MacPro to SL. Snow Leopard is working very well for most people, I feel it is the best OS yet.

Re: macbook to macpro
Thanks I will leave well enough alone. I agree my Macpro with Tiger and 5.13 has been the most stable.
However I am moving to DP7 and thought I should run it on both my Macbook and the Macpro for session compatibility. I'm not sure how easy it is to switch back and forth or if I can. I understand it will run on both Tiger and Leopard. I would move to Snow Leopard but Ethno does not run on SL yet.
PT WA is Port Townsend, Washington state. across the Sound from Seattle, quite and beautiful!!
