John:

Nice to have a fellow San Antonioian on the list.

My suggestion is to upgrade to OS X Jaguar.  I have been using it to 
print documents that I have scanned to pdf using Acrobat 5.0 and they 
print as
quickly as any document from Acrobat.  I use an iMac with 192 mb and 
6gb left on my 10 gb HD.

I never had anything but OS9 before upgrading to 10.2, but I think it 
is great.

Good luck,
