Upgrade Mac MSO v.X To Mac MSO 2004 To Mac MSO 2008

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry



I own a G4 iMac 15-inch which runs 10.4.11. I plan to purchase an
Intel iMac 24-inch soon.

I am a registered user of MSO v.X. I wish to purchase the MSO 2004
upgrade at the discounted upgrade price which often sells for
$203.99. Then I wish to upgrade MSO 2004 to MSO 2008 for the $6.99
upgrade price.

Does my MSO v.X version qualify for the MSO 2004 upgrade price? Will
the MSO 2004 installer recognize my MSO v.X installation as a
qualifying upgradeable package? Is my MSO v.X to MSO 2008 upgrade
path legitimate?

On a sidebar, I plan to perform a fresh installation of MSO 2008 on
the Intel iMac and then make the MSO settings match the MSO v.X
installation on the G4 iMac. Is there a compelling reason to:

1: Install MSO 2004 over MSO v.X on the G4 iMac.

2: Use the Migration Assistant to transfer the G4 iMac settings and
applications to the Intel iMac. I perform a full bootable backup from
the G4 iMac to an external Firewire hard drive every night. I would
connect this hard drive to the new Intel iMac to perform the data and
application transfer.

3: Install MSO 2008 over MSO 2008 on the Intel iMac.

Thank you for your assistance.
