I wasn't really talking about speed, but preferences and settings for example. At least Netscape 7.02 didn't work with my old settings (the info is in OS9drive/documents/mozilla/users [something like that]) ok this might be Netscape's fault since they used to be in the preferences folder in older versions, then they changes (why would they do that? is it an OSX thing?). Ok is my fault I should download and install the OSX Netscape, how do I tranfer my settings? Will it do that automatically? >If you're running the same system folder you boot 9.2 out of, this could > >be your problem.

I'll try to run extension manager on it now and choose only basic extensions. I didn't know I had to do that before installing this, a friend of mine moved recently and needed money so I bought the CDs dirt cheap ($20) but he didn't use 9 previously on that Mac so he couldn't say much, he was pretty satisfied with Jaguar though. >The biggest problem you've got is that you're running OSX on *way* too >small a disk.
