A:

Hello,

Your iBook can be upgraded to Mac OS X 10.4.11 (Tiger)

You're best to use a retail copy of this software, it can be found on some online vender's web sites or you may find a copy on eBay.

Hope this helped.

If it hasn't already been done, I would recommend maximizing the RAM with a 512 MB module.
