I also have a Powermac 8600 with it's original 604e @ 250mhz Processor, running Puma (10.1.5) with only 96mb of ram (I'm waiting my G4/400 + 384mb to arrive), and I believe that the processor speed isn't that important, or at least isn't as important as having MORE or AT LEAST 256mb of RAM. I believe that if my 8600 had at least 256mb of RAM it would be a very useful machine, almost on par as this 333 G3 iMac. I don't use Photoshop or other RAM and Processor hungry apps, only those Internet utils, plus Office v.X apps once in a while. A very SOHO use.
Carlos,
You would do well to upgrade 8600 to Jaguar as I was astonished how much more responsive it was on 9600 with G3 300 c/w 10.1.5.
