Re: Have I waited long enough to move up to Leopard?

My Quicksilver 867 has a Radeon 9700 that System Profiler recognizes as a 9800 Pro, and it runs Classic 9.2 perfectly. By the way, what's this Deinterlacing thing? On Nov 10, 9:15 am, insightinmind <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Nov 10, 2008, at 2:23 AM, Digital Bill wrote: > > > DVD Player

Hi Am I right in thinking DDR 3200 RAM will work in a machine that takes DDR 2700 as long as both are 184 pin sticks. I've been offered some 1GB sticks of DDR 3200. I know my eMac takes 2x1GB sticks. Is it just like PC133 and PC100 that it will just run at the slower speed? Simon --- http:/
