Wow, T'hanks for all the input fellow listers, I really appreciate it. I found the Language kits. Now I just have to decide if I want to bother with OS 9 or do it all under OS 8.6, any opinions? I have a PB5300ce/117mhz/2G/32mb, though I might be willing to upgrade the RAM to 64mb if needed.

I currently have a PB5300 booting up with a measely 32MB compact flash card and it is slick. Boots up right away and runs really smooth. Anyone else have experience with this method? Are there any drawbacks to doing this, I know read/write cycles on the disk could be an issue. Thanks, joseph

1400 RAM irritation
