Hi, new subscriber here. I'm hoping to obtain a 1400c/117 PowerBook, and am wondering if I will need a System Enabler to load OS 9.1, 8.1, or 7.6.1 from a non-machine-specific Apple OS CD. (I don't have a PB-specific OS CD.) I tried to check Apple's support archive, but the link to the document I was
looking for didn't work (#21176).

Also, I'd be interested to hear thoughts on how many problems I'm likely to have with OS 9.1 on a 117 MHz PowerBook (w/48 MB RAM installed)? Thanks!


I have a PB1400c/133 and run OS 8.6 beautifully. I even have it running on a wireless network with a Dell TrueMobile 1100! It works like a charm. OK, I only have 48MB of RAM, but I still think it runs beautifully--considering. ;)

Oh yeah, I installed 8.5 from a non-machine specific CD I got on eBay, then upgraded to 8.6 on-line.
