I have just joined the board, and am a real newbie to portables (its being shipped at the moment)...I have just purchased a G3 Lombard (bronze), 333MHZ 320MB RAM - 6GB HD running OS X 10.2.8. Although I use OSX on my 600 mhz imac, and am getting used to it (have to admit, it is sometimes a struggle), i'm wondering if i should backtrack with the powerbook and use only the old OS.(as in uninstall the OSX). Understand the "bronze" wasn't loaded with X when produced and am always leery of upgrading past a computers capabilities? Any info would be appreciated.
Panther should work on the Lombard. Unless all the applications you're using
are only available for the old Mac OS, I don't see any reason to stay with
the old Mac OS. It hasn't been updated since a couple of years and there are
less and less applications that are updated for it.
