Netscape 7.2. This does not work with OS 8.6.

Mhz G3 upgrade running OS X 10.2.8. Nice and responsive.

Hey, Hang on - There's no need for so much speed, really. My G3 is a
stock-standard G3/266 except it has 128 Mb ram (soon to be 512 ... & it has

(Australian), so G3, or maybe a G4 looks like a much better bet.
