Star Why I Ditched MacOSX for Linux - A Yellow Dog Linux 3.0 Review
Linked by Jon Atkinson on Tue 20th May 2003 18:14 UTC
Linux I entered the world of Apple hardware about 3 months ago now, with a second-hand iBook2. It was a 500mHz, 256mb, ATI Rage 128 model, with a standard CD-Rom drive. I spent the first few days trying to tweak Mac OS X to my liking, then a few further weeks installing and learning to use the applications I thought I'd need. Chimera, BBEdit, the developer tools, even the Fink X server so I could use Gaim.

So which is the real performance drowner? The ATI Rage 123 or his 500mhz cpu? I would think OSX would run better on a mac system like this.
