From: Mark Benson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>8.1 is fine, 8.6 would be good too.
I'd agree with 8.1 - but 8.6 won't run on a 68k Mac. - 8.1 is a free update available either from Apple or a generous friend who has it.
-Performa 450, 20Mb Ram, 160MB (currently 7.6.1)
Again, 8.1 or 8.6.
You *have* to be kidding. The 450 won't run either 8.1 or 8.6 (well it will run 8.1 but you have to buy software to do it and it sucks anyway 'cause it's mega slow).
-iMac G3 400"DV", 192Mb RAM, 10GB (Currently 9.2.2)
Add more RAM, then run OS X. Of course, with such a modern operating system running, you'll probably run out of HD space real quick, but you said you had other IDE drives that you can use instead.
Agreed - upgrade the hard disk and RAM..
-PowerMac 4400/160 , 64MB Ram, 2GB (Currently 9.0)9.1 or 9.2.2
9.1 - according to some sources 9.2.2 can be unstable on older PCI Powermacs, and it offers little or no advantage whatsoever over 9.1, especially on a Mac that old.
I defer to Mark's more learned and specific recommendations. :)
