More Memory And Jaguar

[rice_web]

I just bought another 512MB of RAM for my iMac DV along with Jaguar. I'm going to be very happy soon.

My 400MHz iMac DV will now have 768MB RAM, a 7200RPM 80GB hard drive, an external CD burner, and MacOS 10.2.

The speed increase that I'll see will be fun, to say the least.

You might wanna get a processor upgrade too

10.2 will scream on your system. I've been happy with the speed of even my most modest G3 systems

I'll get a new G4 system in good time...

Now, I'm just soaking in the thought of a faster system for only $200. Eventually, I'll pony up the money for a superdrived eMac.

Good luck with your new RAM and X.2, you'll have to let us know if you really do notice a big difference over X.1.5 on that 400Mhz G3 iMac.

If you want, I'll do benchmarks on a variety of tasks.

That'll be good, I've just this second ordered my copy of X.2 from the Apple store and like everyone am looking forward to recieving it, see if I can't get this dual 1Ghz running any faster...

Wow. You lucky horse's ash!

Jaguar will be plenty happy with all that RAM. Plus, with 10.2 and over 512MB RAM, even a G3 seems to become 3/2 to 2x faster.

Enjoy, man.

This should certainly hold me over, I'm giddy.
