I'm looking to move up from a 3400c to a Lombard or Pismo and want
your advice as to which to go for, or if there is a significant real
world difference.
I've combed the LEM site and EveryMac, but want more than just specs to go by.
I'd like to be able to surf the web wirelessly, write, and
I really liked my Lombard, until I got the Pismo, Firewire, the last
requirement for Tiger. They were both 400 MHz models, I can't say I
see a big difference in speed. Bit built in Airport and Firewire have
me on the Pismo over the Lombard laying at my feet. That and it's
dead again, I
What are the differences between a Lombard and a Pismo for running OSX
if both have a 400mhz processor?

video card. Otherwise they are the same.

The Pismo is better, hands down. It has the faster bus speed, and a
properly supported video card (mostly, it has a couple OpenGL glitches
with large textures, but those are from fairly new apps that are written
to ignore older cards like the Rage 128). Those two alone make it
worthwhile to
Pismo is more upgradeable (more processor choices),
and most importantly, it has an airport slot (and
built-in antenna) and a faster system bus (100 v
66MHz).
Otherwise they are about the same. They weigh the
same, have the same form factor and share drives and
batteries, getting similar battery
