I haven't stress-tested it too much yet (other than to start picking up Carbon programming as a means to port stuff from Windows), but Mac OS X has never crashed on me on a 266-MHz beige G3. (It's currently equipped with 256 megs of RAM, 30 gigs of 5400-rpm IDE disk, CD-ROM and Zip drives, a no-name RTL8139x Fast Ethernet NIC, a USB2/FireWire combo card (I think it's the one put out by Siig, but I could be wrong), and a flashed no-name PCI Radeon VE clone. If I need to burn a disk from it, I have a Pioneer DVD burner in a FireWire case that it can use.) _/_ Scott Alfter / v \ [EMAIL PROTECTED] (IIGS( http://alfter.us Top-posting! \_^_/ pkill -9 /bin/laden >What is the most annoying thing on Usenet? -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
