The 1400 probably does not have enough RAM or CPU for Netscape 6. NS 4.75, 4.78, 4,79 are probably about it. I use NS 6 at home on my old PCI MACs and IE 5 on my 1400 until I have time to sort out NS 4.79 on it. -- PowerBooks is sponsored by and... Small Dog Electr

I'm at a coffee house writing this on my 1400 on wifi. My machine is a 166 with 40 MB RAM and runs OS 9.1 just fine. Not as snappy as 8.6 with low RAM space but I like the features enough to put up with the trade off. Also some software needs OS 9 A 133 may be better off with 8.6 though. ---
