If you have any Intel Mac, just put the Snow Leopard DVD in the drive and follow the instructions to upgrade.ДЄs we said earlier, if you still have a Power PC Mac, youвЂ™re stuck at 10.5 Leopard, as that was the last version to officially support non-Intel Macs. This DVD is also the only way for Macs with older versions of OS X to gain access to the Mac App Store and upgrade past Snow Leopard. Snow Leopard is the last verison of OS X available strictly by DVD. Upgrading from 10.5 вЂњLeopardвЂќ to 10.6 вЂњSnow LeopardвЂќ Snow Leopard system requirements: If you have an early Intel-based Mac, itвЂ™s wiser to skip Leopard and go straight from Lion to Snow Leopard - assuming you meet the memory and hard drive requirements. Still, thereвЂ™s a lot you will no longer be able to do on your Mac until you get a more recent, Intel-based machine. Leopard is the last version of OS X that supports PowerPC Macs, so itвЂ™s a good idea to have this latest version.

So supporting a 'previous' release of an OS, at least with critical bug fixes and security update, including a formal commitment on how long this will be done (i.e. Surely Apple has a more-ready-to-upgrade userbase, but if you look around and see how many XP or even NT4 boxes are still around, you get the idea. App upgrades of that magnitude don't happen quickly and they can be quite costly. Many people will have similar reasons not to upgrade, especially when using pro-grade graphics, design, music and other tools.

It won't be upgraded, but I need to keep those years around to look up records or if an audit comes up, so unless I find a legal and working way to run a VM with Snow, I'll not touch the OS install on that box.

I'll leave one of my four Macs on Snow Leopard, because it runs a German accounting software that, until it's 2009 version, only ran in Rosetta emulation because of it's older Filemaker base.

the no-longer-existing services in Server or the missing Rosetta support), some people will have to stick. Second, especially with an upgrade that technically cannot run everything that worked before (e.g. First of all, some older hardware may be too slow or not have enough capacity to run Lion, but may still be sufficient for real world use. The user base has now certainly grown to a point where not everyone can simply upgrade to a new major release. I'd sincerely hope Apple will continue to upgrade Snow Leopard with bug fixes and updated peripherial hardware support like print drivers, etc.
