Just popping in to say howdy to y'all from my trusty old G4, now running Leopard with a little help from my hacked installer :)

Leopard runs amazingly well on this machine. It actually manages to be faster than Tiger. It's a very nice overall experience. Obviously some of the more graphics-intense things are a wee bit slow on this machine, but overall the experience has been great and I'm gonna be switching over to Leopard on this machine as its primary OS :)

Oh, btw, the specs are as follows...

Model Name: Power Mac G4

Model Identifier: PowerMac3,3

Processor Name: PowerPC G4 (2.9)

Processor Speed: 500 MHz

Number Of CPUs: 2

L2 Cache (per CPU): 1 MB

Memory: 768 MB

Bus Speed: 100 MHz

Boot ROM Version: 4.2.8f1

With the stock Rage 128 Pro 16 meg graphics card. And it STILL gives decent performance :)

Just some words of encouragement to you out there considering Leopard no your unsupported Mac.
