Specs on the iMac?


It's the half-a-soccer-ball 17 flat panel.

best alternative to most users is Leopard Assistant


Sad to say, my iMac is the one modeled listed in the table as 
Uncertain, though I note that the original article did not indicate that.

 The one I like is half-booting to a command line, telling the machine
 its speed is 867 and then continuing the boot into OSX. Then when the
 installer asks, the Mac says it's the required speed and the install
 happens. When you boot the next time, you're back to being 800 but
 Leopard is installed and running. A LOT simpler than editing the DVD.
 
 Just a couple lines of typing. I've got the link somewhere.

IMHO, the best alternative to most users is Leopard Assistant:

No need to edit the DVD, no need to drop to the terminal, no need to
remember OpenFirmware commands.

 2.0 (Alpha) will not run on Panther, you need at least Tiger (10.4)

 Not an option. I dragged my feet about getting Tiger and, once Leopard
 was out, Tiger was gone! And Leopard won't (officially) run on my 800MHz
 G4. :(  If Apple still sold Tiger, I'd probably buy it. But N...

My 800MHz iBook runs Leopard pretty well. Doesn't feel faster than
Tiger, but it's worth the pain for the small amount of software
requiring it. The hacks needed to install it are very mature and easy to
apply. I'd recommend upgrading, even though it's not officially supported.

when you install SM, it will start using the Mozilla Suite profile.  You can't 
get any more simpler than that.


Indeed! Thanks, Peter.

You might/will have to update any extensions she has installed.


She has none. Doesn't know she has options! Doesn't even know about 
SeaMonkey!
