    Hi,
    Apple finally set the date for releasing Leopard, Aug 28th.
    I have MBP 2.5, 4G RAM 1033,but my graphic is Geforce 9400m, can I use the new MAC OS on my system? If yes is it possible to use 64 bit version?
    TX

    The only real requirement is an intel processor. So yes you can most certainly instal and use the new OS.
    64bit will run auto-magically when ever you launch a 64bit program. As there there are still a lot of programs that are 32bit, and for laptops, 8Gb is the maximum there is still no need/advantage for 64bit yet.
