[QUOTE="metalfury, post: 943138, member: 131605"] Hello, I have looked over previous posts but would be interested to know your opinions. I have found that more and more sites are using Flash Player 10. However this player doesn't install on my old 10.3.9 mac mini: Machine Model: Mac mini CPU Type: PowerPC G4 (1.2) Number Of CPUs: 1 CPU Speed: 1.42 GHz L2 Cache (per CPU): 512 KB Memory: 1 GB Bus Speed: 167 MHz I was considering upgrading the OS to 10.4 so I can install the version 10 player but have concerns about how well the machine will run after the upgrade. I've looked at the system requirements that someone else has kindly posted and my machine will meet them. However I'm interested to know how well it will work in reality ;D Will my machine cope with such an upgrade . . . or does anyone have another suggestion to get flash player 10 installed? Also would an OS10.4 upgrade have an impact on the software I'm using in 10.3.9? If it is relevant, I tend to use the computer for design work (adobe/macromedia products) which are quite memory intensive. Also I'm pretty sure the memory is upgraded as much as it can be. Many thanks in advance metalfury [/QUOTE]
