  • Latest Browser(s) for Mac OS X 10.5.8 1.8 PowerPC Processor

    Posted by Joe Sullivan on November 20, 2011 at 7:41 pm

    Hello,

    I have a Mac OS X version 10.5.8, processor 1.8 GHz PowerPC G5, Memory 2GB DDR SDRAM. I am currently using Safari 5.0.6 (5533.22.3) and Fire Fox 3.5.19.

    These browsers are quite old now and Gmail is not supporting them any more and I am having problems browsing but mainly using this mail client.

    I want to download the latest / more recent browsers that are compatible with my system & processor?

    If someone could post / send me a link ? that would be great

    I have tried:

    fire fox: “Unfortunately the latest version of Firefox isn’t compatible with your computer’s operating system. Learn more.”

    Google Chrome: “Your operating system is not supported.
    Google Chrome is available for Mac OS X 10.5 or later, Intel only”

    Many thanks in advance

    Best regards

    Bootcamp does not work with PowerPCs. Here’s a link that explains.

    You can use VirtualPC but I can tell you from experience that it is slow.
