Default Is 10.5.5 okay for the newest PT HD?

Just got a used Mac Pro for PT HD

I'm going to reformat everything and install the OS from the Leopard DVD.

Is it still a no-no to use Software Update to get the newest versions of everything (currently 10.5.5)?

Otherwise, what OS is the best and I'll dig it up on the Apple site.

Thanks.. want to do this 100% properly.

While I don't have an Intel MacPro, I do have the last version of the PPC version of the G5.

Currently running 10.5.5 with all the latest updates from Apple, via Software Update.

Pro-Tools HD, V 7.4.2 cs1

All is well.

10.5.5, while not fully qualified yet, does not show any signs of being problematic and actually fixes a couple issues.

It's always best to use the Combo Update whenever possible, rather than the delta update you get with the Software Update panel.
