It's a 600 Mhz P4 I am talking about. OSX 10.3 is
sluggish compared to the 1Ghz ones at the store and as
compared to the X86 machines. Of course, with all that
eye candy, if figures.

We have a 333Mhz iMac here too, as well as an old
33Mhz Performa. Both still work.

Indeed, ditch YUM! Yum is yucky! They could integrate
a more easily managed version of synaptic (i.e. placed
into URPMI style catagories), that would be good.
