Q: Is it possible to runTiger or Leopard on a MacBook Pro Retina using Boot Camp?
I have an old CADD application that became difficult to use with Snow Leopard. The newer versions of the software have features I'll never use and is now priced beyond what I can afford, therefore, I would lIke to be able to run the old application with OS 10.4 or 10.5. I was told that I could make a Tiger or Leopard drive partition on the SSD using Boot Camp in order to use the old application on a new Retina MacBook Pro. Is this possible? It sounds too good to be true. Otherwise I'll have to downgrade my aging 2007 MacBook to 10.5.
Thank you,
MIchael
MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Yosemite (10.10.1)

1. A cloned drive will be directly bootable. Time Machine backups aren't until restored.
2. You should use the Disk Utility on the internal drive.
