Hey All,
I am trying to download mySQL for my Mac, but I don't really know much about my Mac :(.

It the newest iMac (I bought it in August 2007)
It's runnin OS 10.4.11, with an Intel Core 2 Duo.

Based on that, does anyone know if it's 32- or 64-bit?
And, is it PowerPC or x86?
Thanks a lot!

What are you trying to do? If you are trying to run MYSQL with PHP and apache then try downloading MAMP

No, I think I'm fine just downloading mySQL... I just need to know if i should download the server for 32bit or 64bit computers, and PPC or x86.

I'm just wondering if anyone can tell me which one to download.

Thanks all,
StPretz

Download the x86 as yours is Intel not PowerPC.
