Where can I get an old copy of Snow Leopard 10.6?

I need to upgrade my MAC Book X 2007 operating system really badly! A friend told me that they no longer sell the Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6, which is what he said I needed. The friend that told me this is a MAC Specialist, so I am going to trust his word. Does anyone have any suggestions on ways of obtaining a copy??

Snow Leopard is two updates ago… yes? Is it that your older MB doesn’t have the specs needed for Lion or Mountain Lion? We had that on my older iMac, so I think it is stuck on Snow Leopard. However, I don’t recall if we updated online or got physical disks. I can ask my IIT guy (a.k.a. my fiancĂ©) when I get a chance.

If you have an independent Apple-authorized computer shop near you, they should have it – maybe not to sell, but to install the update on your device. You could also check the many Apple forums out there, as well as eBay and Craig’s List.

You may want to read THIS. Read the “Snow Leopard General requirements” first.

@Tropical_Willie: That download is for people who already have 10.6.x Snow Leopard, it seems from the link to the download itself.

Ebay?

The Snow Leopard is attached to the Macbook by serial number, and the hardware requirement must be met to work.

I have a retail copy that you can have. Send a PM letting me know where to mail it if you want it.
