we had a powerbook stolen from our office but still have the tiger discs. I was going to use these spare discs on my ibook but because the discs are for a powerbook it doesn't seem to install. are the disks dependant on what machine they were made for?

If the OS came with the machine then the software is dependent on the hardware.
If you buy a retail box then you can install in any MAC pc.

I don't trust torrents even for mac shit.
I dlled the entire Cure Collection 17 freakin cds worth. When I loaded it up to itunes it crashed my itunes and lost all my playlists. Now I have to go reloaded 80 gigs of music :(
