I've been playing around with it on my 400MHz DV SE with 384MB RAM.
I installed it on an external firewire drive so I could switch between OS
9.2 and 10.3. So far, it seems very responsive, almost as fast as OS 9.2.
A while ago I had tried out 10.1 on it and was unhappy with the speed but
this version seems quite nice. I never tried 10.2 so I don't know how it
campares. I haven't done any benchmarks to support my observations other
than booting up. 10.3 takes about 63 seconds from the bong to mounting the
hard drives and 9.2 takes about 75 seconds.
