You say you had problems with osX, what rev were/are the G3's you tried

Were yours earlier versions, hence the trouble?
Can you tell me what set-up you have on the machine
I've a friend who wanted to upgrade his o.s. to take advantage of the
latest iTunes. He has the first G5 Mac.
I had told him it should be no trouble to get to the highest version of
the o.s. he was running. But then I actually went to Apple and learned
that Jaguar 10.2.8 is for Macs ACCEPT
This subject interests me, in that I was thinking of moving my main Mac
from the current G3 AIO (Molar) setup running (flawlessly!) Panther
to a G3 Beige Server. I'd maxed out the memory on the Molar, and was
thinking of switching it to the Server.
Should I expect trouble?
I sure hope not!
