As an additional comment - I use my PowerBook G3 400 MHz EXCLUSIVELY in OS X
10.3. 366 MHz is not much slower so I don't see any reason why you couldn't
run OS X nicely. The stability is SOOOO much better than in OS 9 (you should
NEVER experience a system crash) and you'll find that your computer simply
'works better'. Apple never fully got around to supporting all the features
it built into the laptops in OS 9. In OS X it finished the job (e.g. sleep
mode works FLAWLESSLY, wake from sleep demands a password in OS X 10.3,
power manager is improved, etc.).
Eric.
