And as to trade off I was referring to speed . It is still in question whether 9.2.2 is fast or slow. On what machine and under what conditions.
On my PM 7300/180 with 250 MB RAM... Mac OS 9.2.2 is, in general, faster than OS 8.6.
Network throughput is a tad faster.
Paging, for those times when I really get carried away editing gigantic TIFF files in GraphicConverter, is noticibly faster.
Something that's slower? Most Finder functions are faster, but opening a folder with lots (500+) of files can take 10 seconds or more. The Finder window appears and starts to fill, then you hear a lot of disk i/o as it fetches the rest of the file headers (yea, very fragmented HD).
