upgrade from 10.4

You should be able to, however before you do that you may want to research this progressively and examine all of the available upgrades from Tiger 10.4.11 upwards...this way you can select the best option for such an upgrade.

I'm not sure why you posted this in the forum for 10.3 and earlier.

However far you go, start with Snow Leopard (don't bother with 10.5 unless you have a very good reason for needing to use it).

MacBook upgrade possibilities - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4297633?answerId=19577869022#19577869022 - "The Early 2006 model 1,1 Core Duo can only run a maximum of 10.6 Snow Leopard. The models Late 2006 Core 2 Duos 2,1 through Early 2008 4,1 can only run a maximum of 10.7 Lion. The Late 2008 model 5,1 Aluminum Unibody through the Mid 2010 White Unibody model 7,1 can run 10.8 Mountain Lion."

1) Make sure your computer meets Snow Leopard technical specifications - http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575 This mostly means making sure it is an Intel Mac and has at least 1GB RAM (more is recommended).

2) Apple no longer carries 10.6 in its stores or online. Telephone Apple to purchase a Snow Leopard disc. In the USA: (800) 676-2775 (contact information for other countries: http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57)

Alternatively you can buy from online retailers but expect to pay much more than the original price which is the price still charged by Apple

3) Backing up your computer before upgrading is always a good idea.

4) After installing from the DVD, update your Snow Leopard installation using Software Update or manually downloading and installing the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v.1.1 - http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
