I can see your point and certainly I can bog down Panther by running several apps, streaming music, and downloading a dmg while surfing the internet. Still, there is plenty of air until that happens.Then again, OS 9 runs fine and does everything I want it to do. I just thought I couldn't run Panther the way I do without serious slow downs. And OS 9 I thought would always be the choice of OS on the clamshells.

I can see that this might be the case on a 300 Mhz clam with 64 MB, though.
