Personally, if you have the RAM maxed out on the 2400 you could probably get away with 9.1, but I always suggest to people to stay away from anything higher than 8.6 if they don't have the G3. I feel it bogs the machine down.
On the G3, how much RAM do you have? I would say if it is more than 80 megs go for 9.1.
