Re: I need massive amounts of information
10.1.5, not jag. a 333 bronze 216MB ram 4 gig HD, (I'll partition like so: 2gig for X, 500 for 9, and 1.5 for docs/music) I have the same machine, except with a much larger retrofit HD and more RAM. My thoughts * 2 x 2Gb partitions will be gobbled up VERY quickly. I suspect after a 10.1.5 install is done it wouldn't let you take it to 10.2 based on the space left * 10.1.5 on a Bronze (compared to Jaguar) is slow and bloody awful * 10.2.x is much better / faster / reliable * The Lombard (333 400) video cards are not officially supported for the OS X Quartz engine so graphics are quite sluggish - especially under 10.1.5 - there is a well documented hack out there for enabling support but there are still several bugs with it * I think 256Mb of RAM for running OS X / Classic / Photoshop is going to be a little thin... I still boot in 9 for my big projects. YMMV - Cheers, Antony. -- == == = = Antony N.
