does it work with OS 10.5.8

My MacPro uses OS 10.5.8.
I seem to need 10.6.4 to use the magic trackpad I bought.
How do I update the Mac OS?

Work on the old PCPower Mini? (the Magic Trackpad)

I have the old PowerPc Mini (Intel came out just three weeks later--ugh!!)
Now, may I use the Magic Trackpad with this mini? I believe I have OS 10.5.8 but not 10.6--is that a problem? DV

Do the multi-touch features of the Magic Trackpad work on older MacBook models?

I have a Late 2007 MacBook (3,1) and I've always been interested in the multi-touch gestures featured in the later models, such as using 3 and 4-finger dragging or inertia scrolling, and my interest has risen even greater with the prominent use of them in OS X Lion. So I was wondering whether it is possible to use these multi-touch gestures if I bought a Magic Trackpad. Would these 3 and 4 finger gestures now work with my MacBook using the Magic Trackpad, or is it just impossible to access these functions without upgrading to a later Mac model? I have 10.6.6 currently, so I assume that I already have that Magic Trackpad and Multi-Touch Trackpad Update 1.0 installed. Thanks in advance.

Will I have to relearn gestures with Lion versus Snow Leopard?

I use a mouse with my MacBook 99% of the time, so I'm not a "gesture pro." If I start using the Magic Trackpad with Snow Leopard, but don't upgrade to Lion for a few months (I like waiting 90 days on new big releases), will I be relearning gestures? Bottom line question is...should I just wait to till I upgrade to Lion to get the Magic Trackpad?

Do the multi-touch features of the Magic Trackpad work on older iMac 24/SD models? I have purchased iMac Dec. 2007, that was Mac OSX 10.5.8 at time?

Sales person sold Magic trackpad to me yesterday, but I am not able to see my iMac have anyway to make this work, please advise?
thanks
