Hmm, Classilla is pretty nice and soon to be closing in... I'm using
os9 right now 2.
Plus my favorite mac (if I have to pick) is still my powerbook 540, a
68k. Use it a lot and it inspires me. Use a g4 powerbook because I
need it sometimes, and same for the 540. But I just don't get the same
good vibes from the g4, nevermind typing with it hurts my hands...
Nothing is breaking constantly either ... (only occasionally but not
too often as there are no buggy new releases to bother me, everything
is nice and stable, and I know and respect the limits of my old
machines).
Just bought a Wallstreet for $80 and I'm in os9 heaven now moving up
from a Kanga (which is still running my old scsi scanner).
