Thanks for the quick reply.
I can update the Intel to Snow ( although the Rev site says 10.5.8 or  
10.6 will work )
I did not realize that the standalone would run on the iPad before you  
got the Apple developer approval.  The gestures are part of the beta  
test this next week and would not work on a desktop, of course.

  He is a young guy who is tired of C+ and wants to try LC on a low- 
cost Mac.

Hope all is going well now that Autumn is on the way :-)
Thanks for the help.
