Welcome back, Noah!
I've never run OS 9, so I have no input (other than to say I repeatedly hear
that it runs kinda slow on a stock 1400). Are you thinking of getting a G3
upgrade at some point?
What features of OS9 are you really wanting to get? I've considered it, but
haven't heard any compelling reasons to get off 8.5 yet.
Also, I'm a bit curious how you make do with such a smallish hard drive. I
get by okay on one about the same size, but I'm more willing than most to
run older (therefore, smaller) versions of many of my apps. Even at that,
though, I'm starting to feel the squeeze. What applications (and versions)
are you running on your machine?
Thanks for any insights,
Richard

Hello, and first off I would like to announce my re-subscription to
this mailing list. I left as my 1400 died but after about 4 months I
used it and it started to work. Now I have the urge to upgrade my
1400 to Mac OS 9. At the moment I have Mac OS 8.6 and it runs
smoothly and I like it, but I like some of the features of Mac OS 9.
So please give me your thoughts!
