What is the age and processor type for your G4? My G4 iBook is a late 2005/early 2006 model with a 1.42GHz G4, and its max RAM is 1.5GB; 512MB is built-in to the motherboard. I run Leopard Server on mine, and it runs OK. If we knew the specs of your rig, it might help. Leopard Server doesn't exactly run super fast like 10.4 did. I really like its feature set, though, so I've just stayed with it. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
