    Upgrading an IBook G4

    IBook G4 12.1 (early 2004)
    1.2GHz PowerPC
    OS X Tiger 10.4.11
    768MB of ram (soon to be 1.25 GB)
    40GB HDD
    ATI Mobility Radeon 9200 with 32MB of DDR SDRAM

    I'm wondering if it's worth upgrading to 10.5 Leopard

    The 1.25GB max ram is confusing... why such a limited number? Why not 2.0GB, Apple?

    I don't know enough about Leopard to help you make an informed decision.

    On this IBook G4, 256MB was soldered to the logic board. Then, you had one slot which would hold a 1GB stick.
