The minimum ram requirements for os x are 128mb...Im pretty sure it's not like windows xp where as they list the min as 128 but it will work with limitations with 64mb...Even 256 mb of ram on a powerbook g3 500mhz pismo runs panther sluggishly, and jaguar worse. A g4 processor helps alot as well..Also if you are planning on running OS X on a g3 processor there is a good program out there that kills the shadows in jaguar and panthers, making it a bit snappier...let me know if you want the link...(its free software and well written) :)-andre
