I sincerely doubt that Mozilla will even launch on your PB1400 due to lack of RAM. It may, but it will be very slow and will cause a lot of paging. Even with a G3/333 and maxxed RAM, WaMCoM Moz on my 1400 is a real dog. It takes a long time to start and chugs on rendering. However, for

I use iCab on both my 5300 and my PPC'd 500c. On both I'm able to view ebay as well as individual listings. Granted it's slow (and for some reason slower at some times than others) but the pages are viewable. Later.Howard

I didn't quite pick up on the hardware in the beginning of the thread, but if you don't have the full 64 MB real RAM in the 1400, it's going to be a real pig. Even then, it's pretty slow; I run it on a 6500, which also has a 603e, I have 128 MB. A G3 would help an awful lot, on both machines.
