Weird... 5.0.10 will not launch when located in the Applications folder. However, it launches fine when the app is placed on the desktop or even from the Downloads folder. This occurs using Leopard 10.5.8 on a PowerPC G4 stock Dual Gig processors.

On my MacBook Pro 15" 2.6 GHz it (Mactracker 5.0.10) launches just fine from the Applications folder... go figure. The MacBook Pro is running Snow Leopard 10.6.1.

Just for the record, I have been using Mactracker for many years and it has always been a fantastic app... very handy to have around if you do any Mac consulting or troubleshooting.
