davida: 
I get same issue even though Mozilla download page says Mac OS 10.4 and above is supported (see http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/system-requirements.html).  When I try to start I just get an error message saying "You cannot use the application "Firefox.app" with this version of Mac OSX". iMac with OS 10.4.11, 2 MB RAM

Those are the requirements for the current release version. We should split out a separate page for different versions, probably.
