Hi Greg, I have one on my two S900 running Jaguar 10.2.8 with QT 6.5 Pro with a Radeon 7000 card, XLR8 G3 400 MHz (10X IBM chip) clocked to 500 Mhz , 400 MB ram. Two 80 GB ATA HD, CDRW and CD-ROM Atapi. Netscape 7.01. I have had it running OSX since early Oct. 2003 without any problems and added the Radeon card three weeks ago. I watch full screen video in QT or other video players. Suggest you look at http://www.dvdrhelp.com/ for more info. I would also suggest that you give OSX Jaguar a tryout. It was a very smooth install using XPostFacto see http://eshop.macsales.com/OSXCenter/XPostFacto/ I am a long time Mac user and although I have my second machine currently running OS 9.1 on SCSI Hard Drives I am seriously thinking of taking it up to OSX some time down the road. Although the main claim to fame is the stable nature of OSX it does have a few bad habits still. One thing that I can say for it, is if I have a problem just force quit the App then go back and reload it and go back to work. I am very happy that I bit the bullet (Jeff you should) and don't regret the move. The S900 works like a champ in Jaguar. I plan to add more ram and a G4 somewhere further on. BTW I do not use Safari as I do not like it and use only Netscape and IE. I really have never played videos in either IE or Netscape so I can't remember ever having that kind of a problem. -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
