Very good!
(I can also confirm that it's still much too slow for anything but
testing.)
If you can find a sponsor that send me a Mac Powerbook for free, I
sure will make it as fast as hell ;-)
You're winking, but let me take you seriously. In the US, I can get a
400 MHz G3 iMac for under $100. That's probably about the same speed as
my 466 MHz G3 iBook, which I still use regularly. If LyX runs acceptably
on that, it ought to run acceptably on just about anything still in use!
If I got 4 people to send you $25 each, would that be enough? (What's
the used Mac market like in Europe?)

Well, I'd definatly chip it; maybe even more that $25. But I have to
ask: what makes anyone thing it can be made faster?
Also, I have a pretty massive XServ I co-locate, and I'm willing to
give an account or two, and perhaps even set it up as an automated build
server.
