Okay, the problem I have is lag. Im running Mac OS X 10.3.9 800 MHz PowerPC G4, 256 MB RAM. On my other computer (another house), I have the same thing except with 512 MB ram and a 750MHz proccesor and it urns great! My setup runs slow. Is there a way I can optimize it so it runs good, or do I have to get a ram upgrade? And if so, how much would it cost to go from 256-512? Thanks!

there could be a few issues here. First your other comptuer is at a diffrent location, so the internet speed could be slower. Even if its a block away it could make a diffrence, also I would definatly get at least a 512MB upgrade. you could probably find it for about $80.00. Ram definatly makes a diffrence when you are running slower processors.

I hope that helps

The 256 mb difference is huge when running OS X. This OS is RAM hungry. I suggest you try and max out what you can.
