And how do I test these distributions quickly, as running OSX within VirtualBox isn't supported and I don't have infinite computers to play around with?
 
I use OSX 10.5 Server in a Parallels VM to test cross-release support.

Does "OSX within VirtualBox isn't supported" mean :-
It doesn't work ??
or, Apple don't allow you to run OS X in VB ??

I'm running OS X 10.6, and I would like to test my Python app bundle on an OS X 10.5 box, so being able to have a VirtualBox install of OS X 10.5 would be very handy :)
Any idea why it "isn't supported" ??
 

I haven't used virtualbox, but the OSX license only allows you to run the server editions of OSX 10.5 or 10.6 in a virtual environment (and then only if the underlying physical server is an Apple machine).  

Parallels enforces these restrictions, other tools may or may not do the same.

Thanks, Brendan.
