Hey you guys! I just upgraded my iBook Clamshell laptop from an OS 9 to an OS X (aka the Mac 10.3 Panther program). It's pretty fast and works just fine, my only real issue with it however is the media. Everytime I try to view a video on youtube.com the video buffers ALOT and the audio doesn't quite sync right with it! Is there anything I can do to fix this problem !

someone else may have some ideas, but the non-firewire clamshells can't do much with video. learn to live with it.

you indeed have a collector's item. apple never made any 300's with firewire. the addition of firewire came 2 upgrades later. while firewire has nothing to do with video, when apple added firewire they also doubled the VRAM and on older models that's where the problem is.
