Moe, Gene is right on. I'm running 8.6 as primary on a fully loaded
2400, with a secondary partition for 9.1.x. If you get the bigger HD
you'll give yourself some more options...and I think you'll be
pleasantly surprised at the performance increase you'll experience.

Gary,
From what I've read and experienced, it appears OS 8.6 is the best mix
between performance and compatibility. I suppose it depends on what
you're trying to do with the machine, but I think wireless and cardbus
for USB would be available in 8.6. I know 8.6 has fewer cardbus
issues than the 9 series. However, I'm not the most experienced 2400c
user here, so I'll defer to wiser judgment.

Greetings. The PowerBook 2400c I am getting is currently configured
with 2GB hard drive, 80MB RAM, and running System 7.6. I amy
eventually opt for a larger hard drive, but will likely live with the
existing 80MB RAM. I am thinking about an OS upgrade and would be
interested in your advice regarding the best OS to run under this
configuration. Oh, I am definitely interested in getting a wireless
pc card, and may eventually get a USB pc card (if the 2400 is truly
CardBus compliant). Thoughts?
