Hi Kate.
I'm using a Pismo 400 with 192MB RAM & OSX runs well on it.
It's not as snappy as in 9, but it's acceptable for a system wiht 192MB.
I prefer the snappiness of OS9, but there are some good apps in X as well.
It really depends on what apps you use.
I find myself shuttling between 9 and X, but 320MB of RAM should suffice
for speedy performance in 10.2.
For instance, I use Nisus Writer a lot (9 or classic only), so I find
myself using OS9 a lot more than X. Other than Omnigraffle, I don't have an
intense need to use OS X. But superior memory management and UNIX stability
is very enticing indeed. I will shift over when I get a memory upgrade to
1GIG.
Enjoy!

I've got a pismo 400 with 320 mb of ram. I'm running ox 9.2, and am
satisfied with its performance. However, I'm tempted by some of the os x
applications. I'd like to hear from any Pismo 400 users who have made the
switch. How much does everything slow down? Do you regret moving up?
