You would be better to add a 256Mb upgrade at least. You only have 1 spare memory slot so you would be wasting the 128Mb if you upgraded later. We have an Ibook snow 500 running 192Mb of memory which works but isnt that snappy under x.1.5 > How fast is the cpu?

I run osx.2.6 on a DV400 and its spins its pizza for ages. If you could upgrade the drive to a faster/larger disk cache you should notice some performance increase. -- Mike Karthauser Managing Director - Brightstorm Ltd Email >> [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web >> http://www.brightstorm.co.uk Tel >> 0117 9426653 (office) 07939 252144 (mobile) Snailmail >> Unit 8, 14 King Square, Bristol BS2 8JJ -- Mac UK is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and... 123Inkjets.com <http://lowendmac.com/ad/123inkjets.html> Support Low End Mac <http://lowendmac.com/lists/support.html> Mac UK list info: <http://lowendmac.com/lists/mac-uk.shtml> --> AOL users, remove "mailto:"; Send list messages to: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For digest mode, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subscription questions: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/mac-uk%40mail.maclaunch.com/> Using a Mac?
