I put my 9.2.2 and ATI card and exts and LCD screen on a 7300 and it is working well, have not noticed any memory run out probs that appeared on my 7600... It is all very strange. My 7600 has a powerlogix G3/4 (with the altivec ext activated (tho probably unnecessarily) and over 800 ram. The 7300 has an xlr-8 G3 and about 450 ram. Photoshop and Illustrator work fine on it.
