Yeah, but OSX 10.3 was absolutely awful... It wasn't until I tried OSX 10.4 that I actually realised I could live with a Mac... And then actually love one :-)

Also OS X on a G4 is not a pleasurable experience by any margin... you need at least two CPU's (OSX is VERY heavily threaded) and a G5 or intel Core cpu to really see what it capable of.


Running 10.4.8 on a PowerBook G4 867MHz and all seems fine to me. Admittedly, it is a whole heap nicer on my Core Duo MacBook, but it is still very usable.

After a recent thead diversion... yes 10.4.8 does run very well on my 1.5Ghz G4 Powerbook... but you should see it fly on this Mackbook Pro... :-)
