OS X Tiger Migration Requirements

Having bought a second hand iBook I was a bit worried about upgrading to Tiger, it would seriously dampen my resell value etc if it could not upgrade but based on this article I am just about in luck.

It seems the big hurdle is that you must have a DVD Reader in your Mac, its presumed this is only for installation time, but thats quite a big deal for many many people who do not have DVD drives in their machines, and as the article states upgrading a iBook is nearly impossible.
