For what's it worth I have been using OS X (with fink) on my iMac and
my G3 PowerBook, without OS9. I haven't missed it. The only thing I
ever missed whas RealPlayer and thats been ported to OSX now.

I also have been using Mozilla and I trashed MSIE. I haven't run into
any problems there either. But most of what I do I'm doing in terminal
windows or X windows, so I'm about 75 (unix tradition) vs 25% Mac
apps.
YMMV
