Same here, running 10.3.1 on my B&W G3 400 with 768MB CAS2 RAM and a
flashed 64MB Radeon 7000 with QE enabled. This Mac is now my server for
my network @ home (it has 2x 80GB Maxtor 8MB cache on a Sonnet ATA133
RAID setup). It was previously running Jaguar, but Panther made it even
snappier, just like Mel said.
