I thought you just asked this.... but no. Dual 800 will not work.

No, you need a CPU over 867Mhz.

This is something I was sort of afraid of. My wife's iBook has an 800MHz G4 processor, which means that Leopard is out. I'm not sure what the extra 67MHz does, but the minimum is 867MHz...

Im sure someone will work out a way to let you install it, 800 MHz is more than enough to run the OS, its just that some of the bundled apps (Front Row, Time machine etc) don't look too flash on older machines, so Apple but a higher system requirement to stop people complaining.

Someone already did it. Check some of the recent threads.

By the way, if you've bought the machine you've linked to, you have a single 800 MHz G4, not a dual.

I put some brief instructions on putting Leopard on unsupported Apple hardware in here.

It is not just the CPU. Macs above the 867 MHz line probably have a better GPU etc. as well.
