Hi all,
I have some questions about my 20th Anniversary Mac. It has a G3-400MHz upgrade and 128MB of RAM. However, it's horribly slow. I know the HD I have in it isn't the greatest, but it's not all HD-based. For example, SimTower on my PowerBook 3400c (180MHz, 32MB of RAM, OS 9.1) is wayyy faster than the TAM. TAM is running 8.1, but only because I couldn't get 8.6 to take (Installation Tome couldn't be read properly).
The biggest thing seems to be that the TAM has no graphics acceleration, but according to http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=30182 Apple KBase article, it does support it. Am I missing some extensions?
I have tried to do some research with limited results - unfortunately, it seems like I have forgotten more of the classic Mac OS info than I can remember :?:
Thanks!
