Chose 7200 rpm drive... instead of large and slow 5400 if you looking every inch responsiveness...
I am using a 1.67 Powerbook 15 inch Hi-Res with 10.5. In my opinion never fall 2 version behind if you use the system in working computer. So 10.5 is okey for to use it. Just disable some selectable 3D appereance menus and dashboard... Go directly 2 GB memory... Withy 2 GB memory i can use CS4 application other than Video applications good and infact in production environment for web. But yes it is slugshy a little but good for mobile working environment. Speed diffrence of two system is raughly %5, max %8... With 7200 rpm drive and 2 GB memory it will be ok i guess. 2009/12/7 mythmaker18 <[email protected]> > I recently purchased a 17" 1.33GHz Powerbook G4 (Aluminum) and was > wondering which would be the best (as far as speed/responsiveness) OS > to install on this Mac: 10.4 or 10.5?
