I am running Jaguar on my G3 iMac DV SE (400 MHz, 256 MB RAM, 8MB ATI Rage 128 Pro) and I love it.

I do not find this an issue. My iMac seems to run fast enough, faster than 10.1.5. > Disk space is not an issue, since I got an iPod and > moved all my music to it. I have Jaguar installed on a external firewire hard-drive, 60 gig.

The stability of Jaguar is fantastic.

I think it does. :) Mike Los Angeles iMac DV SE, 256 RAM ----- "Never ask a man what kind of computer he drives. If it is a Mac, he will tell you. If not, why embarrass him."
