We had an Apple rep at our User's Group (The Rest of Us, Chicago) meeting
last Weds., and he said the official word from Apple is OSX will take 64
(!) MB of RAM. He also said it is designed for G3 logic boards and newer,
and he seemed pretty pessimistic about it running on 3rd party G3 upgrade
cards. He pretty much said it WON'T run on non-G3 PowerPCs.
