You can probably run 8.1 without any ill effects memory wise, however I'd stay with 7.6.1. I've run 8.1 on two 603 PPC machines - my 2400 running at 180 mhz before I installed a G3 chip, and a Performa 6360 with a 160mhz 603 in it, and in both instances the speed drop in moving from 7.6 to 8.1 wasn't worth it. I'd imagine anything about 7.6.1 would be painfully slow on a 100 mhz 603. ---------- Duo/2400 List, The friendliest place on the Net! A listserv for users and fans of Mac subportables.
