I must be very lucky in the sense that my 2400c/Interware G3 is the 
best computer I've ever owned: never a crash or the infamous GLOD, 
it's running 8.6 rock solid. Every peripheral I plug in just works, 
be it FireWire, USB, ADB or SCSI.

As far as my other macs are concerned, I'm not a fan of IE 5.0 
(crashy as crashy can be, but very fast rendering pages), I use IE 
4.5 if I must, and Netscape has usually been my browser of choice, 
mainly because I can use on the UNIX machines as well and I'm more 
used to it.

But my latest discovery has been iCab. The first versions were 
so-and-so, but the present pre2.4 version is as fast as IE 5.0 if not 
faster rendering pages, and *very* stable. It doesn't fill your 
system folder with junk, and it uses half of the memory Netscape does 
--even less if you are willing to trade off memory usage for speed--. 
And lots more of good features.

I'm considering switching to it on a permanent basis. Highly recommended.
