I just recently upgraded the processor to a G4 500 and it is MUCH faster. But, after all of the OS's that I've run on it, including Yellow Dog Linux, I find that OS 9.2 suits it best. For me, it's also an advantage in that I have a computer that boots OS 9 natively as my latest iMacs won't. I despise running classic on 10.3, not that I've really needed to in the almost 4 years that I've been using Mac since my switch from the dark side.

Well. I feel a little silly. I posted earlier this week wondering what was wrong with my hard drive. Disk utilities couldn't see the drive. Turns out I needed to, uh, put a driver on the hard drive! Works ok now...
Now I have another question...
I would like to know if I should make the jump to X? Currently I have 8.6 installed, 192 mb ram, 6gb hd,G3/266MT. In anyone's experience, is this too primitive of a system to notice any real benefit from X, or am I better off sticking with 8.6? I have heard X's stability touted as being superior to all other OS's.
Exterminate all rational thought.
