PearPC? How did you get that to even boot, much less get the internet working?Just had a play on Mac OS X Tiger on a VM.
hmm...nope, not pear pc. VMWare Player. How? Remember these old OSx86 iso images?PearPC? How did you get that to even boot, much less get the internet working?Just had a play on Mac OS X Tiger on a VM.
Is the performance any good? I have VMware Workstation 12 Pro, so does the lack of VMware tools still result in good performance?hmm...nope, not pear pc. VMWare Player. How?

Personally, I think WinWorld should carry Mac OS X all the way to Leopard. Not the Intel versions, though.10.3 should be OK if anyone could provide an unmodified, original, retail ISO image. I think 10.4 and 10.5 still need a bit longer though.
Leopard was an universal version (supported both Intel and PPC from beginning to end) and Tiger's retail version was only offered for PPC. Recovery discs were required in order to install Tiger on Intel.Personally, I think WinWorld should carry Mac OS X all the way to Leopard.

I'd assume Jaguar may work well under it too, but I wouldn't think Internet Explorer for Mac would be though...hmm...nope, not pear pc. VMWare Player. How? Remember these old OSx86 iso images?PearPC?

Oh. I checked, and it seemed that Leopard succeeded Tiger in 2007. The last security update for Tiger was in 2009. Safari support for Tiger ended 2010.I think 10.4 and 10.5 still need a bit longer though.
I think part of why Tiger is a little new to be Abandonware is because believe it or not, It's still quite usable today if you know which software to use. It's even more usable than Windows 2000 and Mac OS X Panther. A list of software for Tiger that's still usable today includes: Adobe CS2 Suite, MS Office 2008, TenFourFox, And the last iTunes for Tiger. (Which AFAIK still works with the store.)Oh.

Tiger is the one that really interests me, Leopard is still too new.

I did find an article for the x86 Tiger you mentioned. Not the ISO though:

So, OS X Panther can be uploaded? It's last update was in April 15, 2005.Everything PowerPC however is 'obsolete' hardware by Apple's standards, so it's fair game until further notice.

I will accept anything PowerPC. Intel is a no-go on WinWorld. It doesn't matter what version, the hackintosh scene has proven that it will fall to extreme scrutiny and threatening letters from Apple legal. Everything PowerPC however is 'obsolete' hardware by Apple's standards, so it's fair game until further notice.
So WinWorld can carry Panther? The original Tiger might be worth posting, but it still may fall under Apple's radar. I dunno why they would be finicky about OS X 10.4 for PPC. Intel I maybe can understand. Leopard definitely.10.3 (panther) is PPC only, and there is little demand for it compared to other versions.
10.4 is the last stop for many PPC users because it was the last to natively support running classic Mac OS application.
By Stitch's measure the original retail 10.4 release was PPC only and would technically be OK, but I think it would be too confusing for the time being as the later ones had intel version intermixed.
10.5 was PPC/Intel right off the bat. And it was the last for PPC machines so for those that didn't need classic mac OS compatibility, this is where the train stops. PS, don't worry about sending that one in. If/when the time comes I have original 10.5 retail DVDs here.
In the mean time, for those reasons, you should still be able to easily find 10.4 or 10.5 at your favorite torrent sites. No real need for them to be here anyway.
Uh, Windows 2000's last update was in 2010 I believe, that's not even six years yet it's been here for quite a while. It's based on the release date, not the last update date. The 7 year gate is only to make sure there isn't any 'can you post Windows 8 on this site' and I'm sure can be flexible.So, OS X Panther can be uploaded?

11 years old. Past the 7 year threshold.
If that may be added to the library sooner or later, I'm curious of what emulator may run it considering that PearPC can only support up to Tiger (the PowerPC version of it that is) as far as I know, unless making a Hackintosh needs to be done even though it is frowned upon for all the right reasons.I am personally OK with 10.5 as well as it's just as unusable as 10.3 and 10.4 but if SomeGuy does not wish to keep it, then that's the official verdict for now. We can revisit 10.5 as the OS X platform matures further.

Remember PearPC? That PowerPC emulator? It feels unfinished, though. The VirtualBox GUI sucks. The last update was in 2011. Development stalled in 2005, when Apple announced the Intel switch. AFAIK you can run 10.4 on PearPC. I tired with 10.2 (downloaded off WinWorld). I've never succeeded, though. I have gotten El Capitan to run in VMware. Search TPB for 'El Capitan VMware'. I'm thinking about building a hackintosh. I have all the tools necessary. OS X in VMware recognized my USB flash drive... but I haven't created an Apple account yet.If that may be added to the library sooner or later, I'm curious of what emulator may run it considering that PearPC can only support up to Tiger (the PowerPC version of it that is) as far as I know, unless making a Hackintosh needs to be done even though it is frowned upon for all the right reasons.I am personally OK with 10.5 as well as it's just as unusable as 10.3 and 10.4 but if SomeGuy does not wish to keep it, then that's the official verdict for now.

....
It doesn't run on an emulator.
It runs on old Apple PowerPC hardware.
