I finally decided to 'upgrade' to PT8 yesterday, bought the download via Avid and when i tried to load it it said I needed to have OS X 10.5 after trying to find the OS X 10.5 download I think I now realize I can't run 8 on my 2.0 Dual Core G5. Is this right.

If so this is a bummer. Any suggestions? Is there anyway to return the download? Why didn't I do this research BEFORE. I got too excited. UGH! HELP!!
