The Blue and White G3 350 I had with 896 MB of RAM ran OS X like a
*champ*.  I had no problems with the speed of the system, at all.  It
even ran Xdarwin and OpenOffice with acceptable speed - something that
seems to be a favorite targt of speed complaints on a Mac.  All in all,
I really liked that system int he short amount of time that I had it.

Maybe I'm just more patient than a lot of people?
