  1. Sounds great to me! by AtaruMoroboshi · · Score: 1, Redundant


    This sounds great! I use OS X as much as I can on my 500/66 g3 ibook with 256mb ram, though I do boot to 9 to use Logic Audio, Reaktor, and tons of virtual instruments.

    My father runs a desktop publishing company and relies purely on macs. He has three on his desk even (including a cube and an ancient and upgraded power computing clone), and he sure likes to bitch about some of X. Font management is his #1 concern. And Mail.app is his #2.

    He uses X on an 700 mhz G3 iMac, the other 7 macs are using OS 9.

    Apple is doing amazing things these days. Let's hope the dual 1.4 gighertz G4s with fast DDRAM aren't just rumors!
