Yes, the OSX package comes with a separate OS 9.2 installer CD. However, 192 is more than enough to run OSX...it runs fairly reasonably on stock 128 mb iBooks, after all. You'll *want* more ram, for all the usual 'wanting more ram' reasons: faster operation, do more things at once, but 192 mb will work. 64 is the stated minimum on the box. -- Bruce Johnson Wherever you go, there you are. -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
