Re: New Yahoo mail on clamshell?
Tiger on a Clamshell is not going to be too good, unless it's a 466mhz with 576mb (maxed out) and a 7200rpm HD will make it the best it can be, this will make it usable but it will be right on the line. Reading email and maybe some websites will be the only thing good. It will work though because I have done it, a 366 will probably be slower... -Original Message- From: Tina K. penguir...@gmail.com Sent: May 2, 2011 1:52 AM To: g3-5-list@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: New Yahoo mail on clamshell?

It runs quite well on both. Web browsing can be slow sometimes. I'd rather have a somewhat slow but up to date browser than something faster but not useable. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

Re: New Yahoo mail on clamshell?
Have you looked at iCab? iCab 4 uses a recent WebKit engine that should work, you might just need to change the user agent to a recent Safari. It'll also happily run on 10.3.9. You can download it from http://www.icab.de/ -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

G5 1.8 Single Processor Performance
Hello, I'm looking for a quick way to upgrade the performance of my stock G5 1.8 single processor powermac. It has 1.5GB of memory in it now, running 10.5. It also has the original Nvidia 64MB video card. I've tried putting in another 1GB of memory in it but no real difference, still slow... What's your suggestion for a quick and inexpensive way to upgrade the speed. What can I expect? I know more memory and faster video is an easy solution but its also expensive and I don't know how noticeable the effect will be.

Re: G5 1.8 Single Processor Performance
If you didn't feel much of a difference going from 500mb to 1.5gb then I suspect adding a little RAM more won't satisfy you. If you still have the original hard drive then a new large hard drive should make it feel a little faster. Otherwise nothings going to make it feel hugely faster. If the budget allows, on craigs list at least in my area dual 2.0 2.3 ghz G5s are available all the time at the $300 range. You might be able to score one with a vastly better video card, more RAM and a bigger HD.

Re: G5 1.8 Single Processor Performance
Check the rpm of the HD, if it's not a 7200rpm, putting in one of these will increase the speed of the computer a lot, if the one in there is a 5400rpm or slower. Better video card and max the ram. Or buy another newer computer with a faster processor speed like what was said here on this last post.
