I've 512 MB of RAM installed (4x 128 MB). I will not invest money on this one, so this will remain -- unless some relative or friend of mine gives me his old computer as a gift, with - oh, such a coincidence: 4x 256 MB PC100 DIMMs... Tiger startup is loooong. Once up and running, it is quite usable. At least for office tasks (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) and internet surfing (Firefox). BTW, I love OnyX! I just deactivated Dashboard, since I never ever use it and this saves additional startup time and RAM. Yap, I can very much recommend Tiger for an old 350 MHz G3 Blue and White Yosmite SmirfTower...
