I guess the hope is that we all have a reasonable collection of old

with various versions of PPC/Intel and various versions of OS X.

get them from somewhere, for backward compatibility support.

Ultimately if you have the computer, you should also have the OS disk
that came with it. The machine supports the version on that disk, and
everything after it (until it falls below the latest OS's min.
requirements)
