I am considering installing OSX, but I have a few reservations: I have OS 9.0.4 with Netscape 7.0, and I don't want to lose my bookmarks and addressbook. OSX loads IE. Is there a way to convert my Netscape bookmarks and addressbook?

Also: What are the drawbacks of using OSX?

I am a novice (as you can see.)

Upgrade to 9.2.2 *immediately* on that machine, if for no other reason than Classic will fail to work in OS X without doing so.

Any decent e-mail client and/or browser can import Netscape stuff. I recommend Eudora or Apple's Mail for e-mail and Chimera for browsing on OS X. IE is a piece of crap and should be thrown out the window to the dogs.

Are you running a iMac (non flat panel)? if so, do a firmware upgrade before installing OS X 10.2 (Jaguar)
