1. Add RAM. 2. Newer, faster HDD. 3. Add RAM. 4. The dock settings: Shrink the dock down as small as you can, and still use it. Magnification off Possition whatever you like. Minimize using Scale Effect. Uncheck Animate opening applications. Uncheck Automaticly hide and show the dock.
5. Did I mention add RAM.
This is what I did to my 266Mhz Wallstreet, 192Meg RAM, 20 Gig HDD, and it is quite useable. A little slow opening apps, but quite useable otherwise.
With all the Dock eye candy turned on, it was unusable.

I see no evidence that the world as it currently stands is capable of "dealing with religious fundamentalists"
Now if there were just some way to get all those Britney Spears albums loaded on the Shuttle. Now there is a project I could really get behind.

I think I saw that movie.
I am not sure but perhaps this is because there hasn't been a version of windows yet that doesn't suck..
Cool... I got some ideas... Where do I sign up?
Red Green would be proud.
You forgot:
e) ??????
f) Profit!!!!!
Sorry, I couldn't resist.
Buy some more RAM... RAM is almost as cheep as water, and will make that system scream.
128 MB is really minimal for OSX.
Everyone has to work somewhere.
Just be glad he didn't get a job at Micor$oft.

4. Profit.
I gotta get in touch with these guys... They must know where to get all the best drugs.
You have a Sony product that lasted for 5 years? Wow. :)
You think there will be a choice?
The office of homeland security will burn it into your forehead, along with your barcode.
And may god have mercy on your soul.
You want even better than that. I work for a retailer that sells these cables, and as such I can buy them at cost + 10%.
The last one I bought was the "Gold Series USB 2.0 Device Cable - 10 feet" Price $39.99
What did I pay for it? Under $4 Canadian.
Most women lie.

I wrote a great hate-sched program, but I am not going to open the source, and it's spyware, with only a few ads. :)

It is a matter of personal opinion, but windows every version up to and including XP is the most horribly ugly thing I have ever set my eyes on.
Strangely enough I also can't stand Mac OS 9-8-7.
What do I like? I like Mac OSX 10.2.x once some of the eye candy is shut off, and I like KDE 2.X +
Give me 5 mins.. :)
Windows is anything but attractive.
Thanks for the tip.. I will try it out when I get home, and maybe add it to the page of OSX speed tweaks I am working on putting together.
How to make OSX more useable on low end hardware.

1. Get M$ to install ipV6 in Windoze XXP
2. M$ pushes for the adoption of ipV6
3. We all get to switch to ipV6 == profit.
Why would M$ do this favour for us? Simple, Windows 95, 98, ME, NT, ETC, all become useless overnight. (OK more useless.) Forced upgrades baby.
Take that law of thermodynamics!
OK, if that is how you feel about Mitnick, I can't wait to hear what you think about DoubleClick.
Note for the humour impared: The above is a joke.
