Hello all,

I would like to upgrade to Jaguar, but before I lay out the cash, is there a noticeable speed bump? I realize I'm running on an old unit here (333mhz iMac with 384mb ram), but I've been satisfied with how it's run to this point. I guess I'm worried that upgrading will make it more sluggish as more features are added, etc? Plus, I would love to be able to run Safari and some other apps that require Jaguar to run, but only if it's wise to do so. Thanks for all your advice.

Im not sure how much of a speed gain you will see on the machine - but it is definately worth getting Jag. go buy it! now!

I did not notice much of a speed gain from 10.1.5 to 10.2.x. B&W G3/400 384 MBs RAM here. However, I don't think you should worry about a DECREASE in speed either, because if anything.. some operations are faster on my machine after goin to Jag. 10.2 is also quite a bit more "polished" than 10.1.x.
