So it's possible to run Mac OS X on a PowerBook 3400 and a Kanga...but my question is, how fast (or not fast, rather) is OS X going to run on a 603e chip? Has anybody tried this? Does anybody have any experience with this matter?

I haven't run OS X on a PowerBook with a 603e, but I have run it on a 9600/300 (604e) with 768 MB RAM and on a PowerBook G3 233/512k cache with 320 MB RAM, and they seemed about the same speed. Neither was particularly responsive, but they were at least useable if I had no alternative. On a 3400c/240, it might be bearable. On a 3400c/180, it might run, but I don't know how much fun it would be.

The last I knew, the video controller wasn't fully supported, so you could only get 256 colors or so in OS X.

Peace,
Drew
