The Leopard version of MacOS is the newest Mac OS 10 version. Tiger is the version before it. (Quite frankly, I think naming your operating system after animals is a bit silly.. especially when they are all supposedly the same "version" of the operating system)

Or you could just get a PC Laptop and skip Apple altogether.

KiZ,

If you are purchasing your Apple computer brand new, you don't have to worry... all new machines come with Leopard already installed.
