I'm going to put Mac os 9.2.2 and then 10.2.8.
I really don't want to use xpostfacto, too much of a pain.

I'll be happy with the G4 and 10.2.8.

with the G4 it should be a little snappier than with the G3... Right?

The G4 will definitely improve OS X. OS 9 will also be slightly faster.

Also, the G4 has a 1 MB cache. If your G3 has a smaller cache then that will be an improvement as well. (If it has a 1 MB Cache then no improvement).

I would recommend Panther though, it has speed improvements, and it's not too hard to use with XPostFacto.
