I've been using leopard for a couple weeks now and I've gotta say I really like the changes, and I definitely got a speed boost too. Spaces I thought I wouldn't use at all, but instead I use it all the time. I have a space for second life, a space for safari and mail, a space for itunes. It keeps my screen from getting cluttered. Cover flow is great too, and being able to preview whole documents just by tapping the spacebar is very handy. I like the way I can click on a date in an e-mail I've received to create an event in ical though I've not yet taken advantage of ical and its integration with all of the other mac apps.

If that's cow-ese for "Zomg I want leopard" then I feel your pain. The mac minis are pretty cheap, starting at 599. They can connect to your current keyboard and monitor. They're not the best computers but they do have core 2 duo processors.

I got Leopard via 1-click discount. Screw Apple for not giving an upgrade CD for recent macs.

rofl, I've been using OSx86 on all my PCs for the past year and a half. Much better than buying Apple's overpriced outdated crapware that's just going to get a logicboard error after a year. And moo_cow, I can't exactly give you any information for legal reasons, try using Google, you'll find somethings. :P

As for leopard, it's like Vista for OS X... Buggy and for the most part useless things have been added. And just like they claim Vista copied off of OS X, Look at things like Spaces or Time Machine. Spaces was copied from Linux we all know that, Time Machine has been a feature in UNIX OSs and Even Windows Server for years, just not graphical. :P
