I would suggest OS 8.6 as your best option. It's a decent somewhat stable OS and
it will be nice and snappy. You could get more speed with earlier systems but there
is a price to pay in terms of features. Basically, the faster an OS runs on a particular
machine is directly related to the OS's abilities. More or less........
The more features it has, the slower it will be.

The thing is, I don't wish to run OS X on this Mac (My iMac's do a good
job of that), but an earlier system with a good balance of connectivity
with newer Macs and OS X and the lowest possible and fastest system
version (7.5.5 maybe? 7.6?). Failing that I'd like to make it as fast as
possible for as little cash as possible and maybe run 8.6.
