[QUOTE="Padawan, post: 40132, member: 273"] I just installed Jaguar on my G3 AIO, and it runs surprisingly well with 256 MB of RAM. However, I'm going to be reinstalling 9.1, because there are a couple of things that I don't like about OS X on this machine. One is the fact that it doesn't support the floppy & Zip drives, nor the internal microphone & external volume control. The other (and this is confirmed by other users on Apple's support site), is that the display settings are not saved when the machine is shut down, so the brightness is completely turned down on every restart. It's hard to explain, and it's not a speed issue, but the machine just feels more "right" running the more contemporary OS 9, so that's how I'm going to keep it. [/QUOTE]
