but my Beige G3 in OS 9 had stability issues as well but in OS X it ran like a champ with no issues (sept for the monitor going to sleep and not waking up after the 10.2.8 update, which there is a work around for on Apples site) i have the AIO model, the issue with the monitor going to sleep and not wake up is also there in 10.3 and 10.4 but the work around works for those as well.

Yep same issue here however i haven't had any luck with the work arounds how did you get it working? Only solution i have heard of is a mac compatible PCI video card. If x post facto removes the 8 gb limit that explains why i never had stability issues with OS X besides the normal instability, i had to use it because I have a dvd so i instal from an external firewire drive. Can't believe i might finally get to the bottom of the video issue [] ]'> unless the work around is a new video card in which case i need to find one first

Sort of odd though says more than 192 mb ram but when i was messing round with osx before i had 128 mb... mabey just the one stick instead of the 2 64 mb would help

i was reading through this post on the apple message board:

Looks like there are allot of cables and drive settings to be checked as well luckily everything in my configuration is stock or added on I will try again tomorrow. Wish me luck...
