I just got a PB3400 with 9.1(?), the latest that will work. I'm curious why you prefer 8.6. Should I consider this?
The 3400 is more responsive running under 8.6, but not dramatically so. It runs quite well on OS 9, provided you have a lot of RAM.
You can actually run OS 9.2, 10.1.x or even Jaguar on a 3400 with the help of third-party hacks, but either 8.6 or 9.1 is your best bet for features, compatibility and performance.
