I have an eMac with just 1 gig of ram, and an 80 gig hard drive running 10.5.6 or 7, I can't remember which, and it runs just fine. My eMac is a 1.42 mhz machine. The only way to know is to try it and see. You can never have enough ram in any machine. The Apple OS is more efficient with memory than a Windows based machine.

I'm running Tiger 10.4.11 now.? When I thought of upgrading to Leopard, I read that it likes to see at least 2 gigs of ram to run smoothly.? Does anyone have any experience with running Leopard with this configuration?? How important would it be to upgrade to 2 gigs?? I have read on "everymac" that it's possible to load the two chip spaces with 1 gig chips but Apple doesn't recommend it. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are a member of the iMac Group, a group for those using Apple iMacs and eMacs.
