greetings all!

i too am coming from the 2400c route and currently own a 466 ibook 
clamshell...i know its quite slow from today's standards, but compared 
to the ole 2400c, it flies!

im running 10.2.6 with 576 MB installed and yes it is a bit sluggish, 
but all i really need at this point in me life.

thanks for all the info, comments, and answered questions!

cheers,

jeremy
