Where did you get that installer disk? The commercial 10.5 install does not have that requirement. Otherwise, it could be tricky if you choose to erase the hard drive before installing Leopard, eh?
To answer your question (and for that matter mine too), I bought a new Mac Mini just after the Leopard release.
