Simply put, don't bother with anything above OS 8.6. 9.2 will not run on any 1400 without some hacking, the best you can consider is 9.1, and I wouldn't bother with that unless you have a G3 processor card in it. 32 megs of RAM should get someone by in OS 8.6, but more is always nice. I thin

SNIP That said, OS 9 has much more native PPC code than does OS 8.6. With lots of RAM and a faster-than-original HD (for speedy-ish VM) OS 9 is faster in use than any other classic Mac OS. PPC code uses more resources (RAM & HD space) than 68K code, so you'll not be happy if you have less than 48
