But the box DOESN'T say that. The box simply says that it requires 
10.3. What it *should* say is that AirTunes (which is only one feature 
of the Airport Express) requires 10.3.

See what I mean about the copy on the box being poorly written?

The answer to that question, which I provided in my last post, is YES.

I don't know that to be definitively true. What I said was that my 
client who was running 10.2.8 and Airport Express just fine *wasn't 
using* the AirTunes feature. One does *presume* that it requires 10.3, 
but I can't *prove* that. I *can* prove that Airport Express base 
stations work with 10.2.8.

I hope that clarifies what I was trying to say.
