[X Newbies] Question re First Install of OS X on iMac

[Scott]

The firmware update is in the utilities folder on the jag cd. Insert it 
while running in 9, install it from there. This way you *know* you have 
the correct update, and you don't have to fool around with downloading 
it.

Which iMac is it?
