OS 8.1 isn't bad for the 2400, but the selection of browsers is very 
thin.  The 2400 will be *VERY* nimble with 8.1, but I'd say which OS 
you use depends largely on which apps you intend to use most.  Overall, 
OS 8.6 is the most feature-rich for "RAM-challenged" Macs although 9.1 
is also a good choice if you know how to trim it down....
