Running X.2.3 on a PDQ (commonly referred to as wallstreet) which is the 300mhz version. Mine has 384mb or ram and runs quite decently. It is definatley less snappy than 9.1 which I have on the machines as opposed to a newer version of OS 9 which are plagued by sleep of death problems. See Charles W. Moore's articles for more information on the matter. I don't use OS 9 that much anymore save for the occasion time when I need to use an expansion bay floppy drive which only works in 9. Overall I would recommend X especially on a pismo even without all the popular upgrades that seem to be turning it into a cult machine like the PB 2400 or color classic. Dave
