Apple Opens Snow Leopard Discussion Board

Posted 08/31/2009 at 3:29:23pm | by Cory Bohon

With Snow Leopard on the prowl, Apple has finally added Mac OS X 10.6 to the Apple Support Discussion Board. Want to get help from other users, or just discuss other information about our favorite cat? The Snow Leopard Apple Support Discussion Board is open for business.

If you've never taken part in the Apple discussions, it is a place where Mac users can talk to others in the community about Apple products they use. You can talk about problems, or just start a topic about tips you'd like to know about. All you need is an Apple ID to take part in the discussions.

Intel Core Duo, Core Solo=32-bit
Submitted by Quayzar on Tue, 2009-09-01 19:26

All Macs with Intel Core Duo and Core Solo CPUs are 32-bit. All Macs with Core 2 Duo and Xeon CPUs are 64-bit. Since your CPU is a Core Duo it is 32-bit. Don't worry as Snow Leopard still works great on those by the way. I know from experience as my MacBook Pro is in the same 32-bit boat as yours.

Yes, Snow Leopard will work

Yes, Snow Leopard will work for you. As long as you have an Intel Mac it'll work (I have it running on my early 2009 white NVIDIA Intel Macbook right now). A Mac computer with an Intel processor, 1GB of memory, and 5GB of available disk space. Those are the requirements for the upgrade version (upgrading form Leopard). If you're still running Tiger you buy the Mac Box set. True, there is a way to install SL from the $29 dollar one (already on here) but if your iLife & iWork apps are old, or if you have none, the Mac Box Set is a steal for both of those suites for $169. Hope that helped you! :)

Wow people try to make things so much more complex than they need to be! If you have an Intel 64-bit processor, install Snow Leopard and go!

How was that answer complex?

How was that answer complex? I just added a little more info from the apple site because it seems people don't do their research before they ask.
