Installin pirated mac osx snow peopard on old mac labtop?
October 5th, 2013
My main concern is using a pirated copy, will I have problems with activation and updating like on Windows 7? or does it usually work flawlessly?

Snow Leopard system requirements:
An Apple computer with an Intel Processor
1GB of Memory (RAM)
5GB of hard drive space (Storage)
DVD drive for installation

Lol, issues activating windows 7? you just click 1 button =/
Ah snap she only has a cd-r drive I guess ill need a usb drive to install it? I know theres a genuine activation hack for Win 7 pirated copies, just want to make sure I won’t run into those issues on snow leopard?
Thanks for the help
More importantly:
An Apple computer with an Intel Processor
The newest Mac OS X releases aren’t compatible with the old Power architecture anymore as far as I know. You won’t be able to install Snow Leopard but according to Wiki, the 1.33GHz iBook can run Leopard (see the table here):
