[QUOTE="m1k, post: 51277"] 10.2 should run fine, I guess. I don't think your Mac would blow up (!), but if it does you can blame Mac Forums. 10.2 should run great, up your RAM though! 128MB isn't sufficient to run OS X. So once you get your friend's RAM your Mac will run really smooth. As for running RCT or Theme Hospital, don't even try it. On a brand new dual 2.5GHz G5 tower with 2GB RAM, Rollercoaster Tycoon running on Virtual PC would act like an old Pentium 1. I can't even imagine what it would be like on an old 350 G3 *shudders*. Don't go there. If you want to play games, use a PC, if you want to do everything else use your Mac. But seriously, you're better off picking up a used Pentium 2 or something than getting Virtual PC, because it runs about 10x slower. Hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
