I have a Color Classic "Mystic" that runs OS 7.5.  I have a beige G3 that I put together to see what all the OS 10 fuss was about.  I wasn't impressed.  This may change if they open up the OS to non Apple, Inc. hardware.  But, due to the high price and poor reliability I'm staying clear of anything with an Apple on it.

You can't really mix apples and oranges here (no pun intended).  What you've said is about like saying "I've installed Windows Vista on my 486/33 and don't like it"...  

I've got the 2.16ghz Core 2 Duo (yes, the 2 does make a difference) and find it faster and far more reliable than any XP machine I've ever owned (including the 2ghz X2 Athlon it replaced).

My problem as it turns out is far more with Microsoft Windows than Intel.


But, you're talking Apples and Oranges too.  If you install XP on your 2.16GHz C2D I guarantee it will fly as should OS 10, Linux, etc.  It's just an awesome processor.  Comparing price and reliability of the C2D systems out there the Mac comes out much more expensive than a Dell, etc.
