Re: iTunes importing + OSX on Lombard
It runs quite acceptably on my wife's Lombard. RAM is the key. Her's is maxed out at 512MB. It works great for her daily web surfing, email and word processing needs.

Re: iTunes importing + OSX on Lombard
Runs fine on my Lombard even before i maxed the RAM. CD/DVD drive is slow as molasses, but everything else is great.

What is your experience? Are you happy with OSX on your Lombard? Add my vote to the it runs just fine pile. As other people have said - get RAM. I've got 512 meg and a nice new 20 gig hard drive in it too. It's not screaming fast, but for word processing, web surfing, email, a little background music - life's basic essentials - no problems at all.
