Simon, If I remember correctly, there are performance issues with the PowerPC architecture and Flash. RAM doesn't come into it - it's a codec issue. Even relatively humble Wintel setups whizz along by comparison. My humble EeePC 701 for example. True, it's SSD makes a real difference, but even a relatively old machine running XP will beat the socks off the fastest PPC machine.
So, it is the machines. On Apr 6, 11:13 am, Simon Royal <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi > > I have two eMac 800Mhz ATI models both running Tiger. One has 640MB of RAM, > the other has 768MB of RAM.
