[QUOTE="rcltrh, post: 342023, member: 15752"] Save money for Ram, cuz with either Tiger or Leopard you will need to boost your G3 to its Max. 10.3.9 will run fine with what you have unless you get too app crazy and try to run too much at once. Tiger is a memory hungry beast and I imagine Leopard will be as well. Even with 1 Gig in my new iMac, I get lots of page outs. My PB with 1.5GB on the other hand never has any, so I am guessing Tiger works best somewhere right above 1GB with what I do. I need to upgrade the new iMac to 2GB shortly. I think yours runs PC100/133 ram (if it is the one in your profile ibook g3-900) and only has one slot, with another 128MB onboard, but you might want to 2Xcheck. [/QUOTE]
