Listas�

I have been toying with the idea of taking my 9500/132 to the next level,
OSX. Now this is simply a choice of cosmetics. The drive in question only
serves as a MP3 jukebox, which is attached to my stereo system.

First bone of contention:

I have already installed OSX (10.0.4) on my iMac (Snow 500/1GBram) and
WallStreet 292/320MBram. The iMac zooms for obvious reasons, the laptop
pretty much struggles along without being too annoying. Running a 9500/132
with 96MBram�how slow are we talking.

Second bone of contention:

I will only ever run iTunes which uses approximately 8MB of RAM, how much
extra RAM are we talking for just the OS. Somewhere I really don't want to
go, since installing RAM on a 9500 is a touch inconvenient.

Finally, I have installed a large IDE hard drive via a PCI controller, just
another factor to deal with.

In summation, does anybody out there have any input in any of the above
factors.

I wait with baited breath�
