Cheers Mark....I was thinking at some point in the future that it
might
be worth upgrading my B&W to Tiger (it's running 10.1.5 at the moment,
but really only as a file server, so it's OK apart from wanting to
spin
its drives down at every possible opportunity).
Can you not turn that off in the Energy Saver preference pane? It's
so long since I used 10.1 I can't rem,ember if that was implimented.
I'll bear in mind what
you've discovered. Mine's still using the stock G3 processor.
I ran 10.3 on the B&W when it was still a G3/400 and it was bearable.
The only thing that was slow was Expose and GUI window movements.
My initial impression regarding Tiger, after using a Mac mini for
about
a month, is that the Finder's not much faster than with Panther on
my G3
iBook. Applications, on the other hand, are much quicker though that
would probably apply just as much if 10.3 was present.
it'll be slightly slower than the iBook I'm guessing, especially on
the graphics side, but otherwise bearable.
