Depends what you want to do really... proper multi-tasking and reliability makes up for sa few seconds lost here and there, plus if the Mac is just being used for browsing or mail or whatever it might be more important to be up to date, not ultra-fast.

I can use OS X on a 6 Y.O 350 MHz B/W G3 w/384 RAM no real pains;
Yet it is barely tolerable to run XP Pro on a 3.5 Y.O 733MHz P3 w/384 Ram
You are obviously a Bill Gate fan boy - time to try something "different"

The reason I upgraded was for the multi tasking... OS 9 is faster but had more problems. My G3 has been serving files now without a crash or shut down (but a few update restarts) for 2 years in April.

Running 2003 software on 1998 hardware is just stupid.
If you're just running Word then you don't need to bother with OS X.

Sorry this doesn't work for you. Thats what I want to do. It works well for me.
"If you're just running Word then you don't need to bother with OS X. "
Is anyone here only running Word and NO other software? Mail, AIM/ichat? Web? File Sharing, FTP? Making backups?. Lots of reasons to be more compatible with your other OSX and Windows computers.
