And sorry, yes , it is 256MB of RAM. There were 2, so it came running 512MB and still had frequent app crashes. I'll look into the iCab, too. Thanks!

How can you test things if you take out all the RAM? Surely 250MB not 250k? I want to use it for basic internet, Word docs/Preview, etc and these are generally fine but will crash once in a while. The main problem is I can't get the Safari to stay open, It was like this when I first got it so I did the combo udpate to Tiger 10.4.11 and Safari is version 3.0.4 thinking it would help but no. I would say 250MB is way too small to run 10.4.11 even with good RAM. About Safari, if this is your only problem, consider using the iCab, it is traditionally a small footprint browser made especially for Macs. -- dorayme -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
