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.

Yeah, I want to go out and buy an extra 300MB of RAM just to make my system "run flawlessly". Every post on here says "I've got 600MB of ram, and my Mac runs fine". JESUS... My notebook has 256MB of ram, and it NEVER runs slow, hell I could take out 128MB and it would still run fine. Maybe if OSX spent less time rendering PDFs, and more time doing what its supposed to be doing, then it would run better. A Mac that can't handle Quartz Extreme? Why in the world does Apple even make such a thing? They shouldn't be selling it with OSX if it can't hanlde it.
