Older stuff that has buried extensions and resources installed, of which I don't know the names, and for which I don't have the original install disks. If I lose them someday, so be it, but I want to use them as long as I can. I have no idea what goes with what, or I would've already backed them up. The PB isn't acting any different, really. It just seems slower than others with lesser OS'. Still, I really need a bigger drive. I have a 10g TravelStar ready to go, maybe I'll just stick it in there and start over.
