My other PB 160 also runs 7.6 with 8 MB of RAM, but like equill, I would strongly recommend trimming the unneeded sections of 7.6.1 (ex: Cache Switch). Also, Mac games and apps (ex: Word 5.1) are more commonplace these days on eBay. Likewise, Ram Doubler and all of the other doubler stuff are optional, but if you are interested in better performance here, you should consider the doublers.
