I'll agree that 7.1 is about as new as you want to go with this machine.
You can add alot of the features that 7.5 has if needed. See
www.macfaq.org for details.

If you use Claris Emailer 1.1v3, the dates may be wrong (Y2K problem?).
There's a patch for it, but if you'd rather not tinker with it, I can
email you a copy of the hacked version. Email me off list if interested.
However Emailer 2.0.3 is a much nicer program, and if you can find it,
You'd probably be happier with it.
