I'll be checking out the lowendmac sight. I know the OS issues have been batted about on this list. And, I have received some info off-list. But Can tell anyone tell me what biggest benefit to OS9 on 2300c is? What is minimum ram I can use for OS9 and still get functionality? Does anyone else have 2 cents to throw in on what cards they like/prefer fro duo dock plus? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
