"snow leopard and mac mini i5: [...]snow leopard and mac mini i5: since i'd need snow leopard once on a while, maybe get a 2018 mac mini and use parallel or fusion will work well enough...what do you think?"
It might work -don't have Snow Leopard installed on my Mac at the moment. I'd have to restore my 2010 Mac from an ancient Time Machine Backup to try it. Seems it would be quite a daunting task, but, once performed, I'd have it down flat. See this link in the Apple Developer Community: Installing macOS on a Virtual Machine Apple Developer Documentation
The Mid-2011 Mac mini and Mac mini Server can't run Snow Leopard directly on bare metal. Those Macs originally shipped with Lion, or Lion Server (which implies they can't run earlier versions of Mac OS X).
Snow Leopard was the third version of Mac OS X that ran on Intel-based Macs. It was the first which only ran on them. At the time, "[any] Mac computer with an Intel processor [and enough RAM / disk space]" may have been an accurate statement of the general system requirements.
I occasionally run Snow Leopard server on Intel Mac mini 2018 Ventura via VMware fusion (free for personal use). Notice that only the server version (MC588Z/A) is allowed to be virtualized, not the retail version. p.s. the latest VMware Fusion 13.0.2 does not automatically install VMware Tools (needed for all display resolutions and for file sharing with the host computer) for such old systems so you need to manually dig them out from the app package.
My computer is running under snow leopard(10.6.2)and i have a bootcamp with windows 7. I installed parallels 5 and it worked fine. However the windows system is quite heavy so vvvv ran slowly. Maybe using xp or vista is better, i am not sure. For now i rather bootcamp and switch system.
Hiking in the hills of northern Pakistan in the 1970s, WCS Senior Conservationist George Schaller spotted a snow leopard some 150 feet away. "Wisps of clouds swirled around," he later wrote in Stones of Silence, "transforming her into a ghost creature, part myth and part reality."

Hi all,I understand that this is not a typical use of chimera, so I don'texpect much support, but I would appreciate if someone can give me aclue to solve the issue...We have a GNU/Linux server (Debian wheezy) with some EM softwareinstalled on it. One of these programs calls at some point chimera toshow something on which the user has to act upon (or just check, notsure, I'm not the user as you've guessed) This machine is accessed fromclient OSX machines via ssh. All permissions are set so X11 isseamlessly tunnelled between them (checked with many graphical programs)Now, for a OSX client running on 10.6.8 (snow leopard) and using Apple'sX11 the whole process works without problems. But for a OSX on 10.7.5(lion) with a parallel installation of Apple's X11 and Xquartz 2.7.5 thefirst small window opens and then the chimera process hangs (it can bekilled via Ctrl-C, which returns the control to the program thatlaunched chimera and things can proceed, though without the informationprovided by chimera)If I connect to the Linux server from the lion machine and directlyexecute chimera I make a different observation: the first small windowopens but then chimera crashes leaving this error in the terminal:Error of failed request: GLXBadCurrentWindow Major opcode of failed request: 149 (GLX) Minor opcode of failed request: 5 (X_GLXMakeCurrent) Serial number of failed request: 1360 Current serial number in output stream: 1360Now, I would appreciate any clues on the meaning and possible solutionof this error or at least any directions on how to properly remove bothApple's X11 and Xquartz (they are supposed to be able to workside-by-side but I presume that a possible source of problems couldarise from some conflict between them) AND re-install them to test themin a fresh install.Downgrading the lion machine to snow leopard does not seem to be anoption...Thank you!Cheers,-- Miguel Ortiz LombardaArchitecture et Fonction des Macromolcules Biologiques (UMR7257)CNRS, Aix-Marseille UniversitCase 932, 163 Avenue de Luminy, 13288 Marseille cedex 9, FranceTel: +33(0) 491 82 86 44Fax: +33(0) 491 26 67 20mailto:miguel.orti...@afmb.univ-mrs.fr -mrs.fr/Miguel-Ortiz-Lombardia
