Can anybody confirm that internet is slower with 8.6 than with 9.1 ? I've got exactly the same config (3400/200 with 80MB RAM, MacOS 9.1) but there are some random freezes at startup. Actually most of the time it starts without any problem but sometimes it freezes just when the progress bar appears. I was thinking downgrading to 8.6 to solve that problem but if internet is slower (and I find it already not that fast with 9.1), I think that I will stick with 9.1. > Just FYI... with 80MB of RAM total, the System shows > that it is using 16MB of RAM. Idem, but I've had to do some cleaning in my extension set to reach the 16MB bar. At the beginning, 9.1 was using 22MB RAM ! Peace, Mehdi -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
