	My first Mac was a clamshell 300 MHz with 6 gig RAM. It was fun to use.

	You will not gain much space at all removing OS 9. Leave it there.
	The best thing to do is make sure you have the maximum amount of  
RAM. If you do, then Panther should run fine. Before I sold my  
clamshell I had it running 10.2 (Jaguar) really well.
