jaguar on old iMac?

I don't know, but 350 MHz is a hefty amount for a PPC processor, compared to a 75 MHz Pentium. To make the difference even larger, a G3 is about 1.5-2.0 times faster than a pentium processor.

i was running jaguar on an old tangerine 300mhz ibook wih 196 megs of ram. it ran fine. of course, i wasnt trying to play games or do any inensive video editing or anything.

I agree. Mac users are bitching about Windows, that can't run on old machines, while Mac OS X requires at least a 400 MHz. At least Windows XP can run on a 200 MHz. It makes Windows better than Mac OS in a way...

Of course, Linux owns them both. It can run on more than just one processor-type.

Uh, Darwin is available on more than one processor. And ever heard of Marklar?

And Windows NT has been at a certain time available for PPC and Alpha processors. Get your facts straight.

So, by this logic, NetBSD "owns" Linux because it runs on almost every processor available?

xyle_one:
you cannot run jaguar on anyting but ppc right now. you could get darwin and x11, but x11 is no quartz/aqua*. jagaur is only jaguar if it has aqua. to me anyways. same goes for the distros. red hat and mandrake have the same linux kernel, but they are not the same. they do things differently.

*is this correct, x11=quartz as gnome=aqua? or how does that workout
