No , I'm entirely serious.

None of the programs you mention would seem to be that intensive for a G3. I asked the question of you as I have read many posts on the PCI list and the Powerbooks list in the past 5 years from users who insist on running the latest OS on a machine that cannot handle the RAM overhead and / or the cpu demands. For a while they brag of their accomplishment and then sometime later cry for help and wonder why their unbalanced system crashes, freezes or otherwise provides no joy.

I gave the memory disk and cpu specs in the first line of my post. Until two days ago Apple sold brand new machines running Tiger with less RAM. Other machines (e.g. Pismo, iMac DV) that are different only in having Firewire and USB ports and maybe 100 more MHz are still officially supported in Tiger. Your questions could not be both knowledgeable and serious.

I, however, accept your word that you were serious and apologize for making an incorrect assumption.
