Hi all,
Just purchased on eBay a Powerbook G4 12" 867Mhz. This is the 3rd classic Mac I've bought in the last 2 weeks.
This was the 1st Mac I ever bought albeit the 2004 model which was a bit faster.
Now my question is what is the OSX sweet spot for this machine? I know it came with 10.2.3 and could be upgraded as far as 10.5.8 but what is the sweet spot OS for performance/features as I don't want it to be too slow. I know it came with a 4200rpm IDE but thinking of putting in an mSATA mini PCI-E SATA SSD to 2.5" IDE 44pin Hard Disk enclosure which should speed things up a bit. Any other recommended upgrades?
Like I said my main goal is to get the sweet spot OSX on it and take it from there.
Thanks.
