I have a 450mhz Sawtooth, 896MB ram, and a Radeon 9200 w/ 128MB VRAM. Playing poker online (its a Java app) often uses over 50 percent of my processor. And I can tell because it goes choppy. In OS 9 it ran fine, no choppiness. This is just my experience on 10.3.5. chris -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
