Hi.

Curiousity got the better of me tonight and I went and installed Leopard on a 
400mhz G4 with 640MB of RAM.

I did it before with a PowerBook G4 400mhz Titanium with 1GB of RAM. It ran ok, 
but even Finder was sluggish and Cover Flow was painful.

I did it before by modifying the Leopard installer files to remove the 
requirements. This time I used LeopardAssist and it works very well and is 
simple.

It ran a lot better on the PowerMac than on the PowerBook. Finder was snappy 
and responsive, even Cover Flow worked fine.

It only has 640MB of RAM, upping it would help a lot.

It definitely was useable and I was surprised by the speed.
