I'm a bit worried because I read on these forums that there's an issue with ATI cards? Basically would the hardware be ok? I'm running Hardy on a custom built PC at the mo and it works fine....but I would like to dual boot with leopard (I can do that right :confused: )

Thanks Guys :KS

you should be OK. I think the only issue most are having with iMacs these days is sound, and I am pretty sure that there are fixes for that.

Hi Ya'll. Cyber's right and I just set up a dual boot myself on my 24" Aluminum iMac...but I'm on a 2.4 gHz, not the new 3.06 gHz.

Here's the main fix I followed for my sound:

If you have sound issues, follow the above thread and you should be fine...
