I am interested in buying a Mac, but I want to be sure that the computer I buy will work with the new operating system that is coming out this Spring.

Of course! Mac OS X Leopard will definately run on the following systems:
ALL new Macs with Intel processors
ALL PowerMac G5 systems, inlcuding the iMac G5
Systems that it MIGHT run on:
PowerMac G4, iMac G4, and the iBook G4 and PowerBook G4
Possibly even some PowerMac G3 systems
When Tiger (the current OS) was introduced, Apple sold it at $130 in the US. I'm guessing Leopard will be about the same price. Hope this helped!

Yes. However, you might want to ask them if you will be able to get Leopard at a discount. Sometimes when Apple is near a new OS release they will include coupons sold with systems that will either let you get a free upgrade copy or at least get a discount when you purchase the new OS. It will work, just make sure they give you a discount or coupon for a free upgrade (they have done so in the past but I don't know what their policy is now).
