I just upgraded from a G3/1000 B/W running 10.3.9 to a Quicksilver
G4/867 with a Radeon 9700 running 10.4.11. The latter is much slower

Thunderbird. Rightly or wrongly, I attribute the difference to the
higher demands of Tiger.

My Quicksilver 867 has a Radeon 9700 that System Profiler recognizes
as a 9800 Pro, and it runs Classic 9.2 perfectly.
By the way, what's this Deinterlacing thing?
