[QUOTE="AstralZenith, post: 7684"] hey ford, I got the same computer (only a gig of RAM) and 10.2 runs perfect first yes defanitly upgrade to 10.3... second from my expirence these things will make your mac run faster: • re-initialize your hard drive and install 10.2 on it • check your power supply (this my sound stupid, but your mac (especially big ones like the G4 733 tower is) needs alot of power, and if your plugging all your periphials and your monitor into the same power grid it could cause your computer to run extremely sluggish) • clean the dust out of the inside of the tower • keep your mac cool, if it gets too hot it will run slow other than that more RAM dosn't hurt, but if your putting more RAM in make sure you have the external power to support it...
