apple osx system disks

i'm going backwards. rather than upgrading my mac laptop, i'm looking to downgrade it to osx 10.4 (tiger).

does anyone know where i can find a copy of an older apple operating system?
almost everyone i see in the cafes with macs are running updated leopard or snow leopard. if anyone has upgraded lately, and no longer needs their original osx 10.4 disks, maybe we can work out a deal ($, box of kickass cupcakes, ?).

ideas? thanks!!

Snow Leopard is leaner, meaner, and faster the Leopard. I love it! No Snow Leopard for PPC though.

Yeah, that's the marketing hype that got me to install it, although I'm having a hard time backing up that claim now that I'm using it.

That and various programs I use regularly had started to complain that they couldn't be upgraded without me upgrading the OS first.
