Ok, I know i have asked tons of linux questions by now but i wanted to get the opinions of some of the peolple here who i think are very helpful.
I will start of with the problem. I have an old Ibook.
- 600 MHz PowerPC G3 processor
- 384 MB SDRAM
Yes, its is slow. I know that the best upgrade i could give this thing would be a shallow grave, but at the moment thats not an option. Besides, it's my first mod so it has sentimental value. It runs os x version 10.3.9 at about the speed that a turtle crosses the highway. At first i could deal with it, but now it is starting to get to me. So i ask my question to you.
Do you think gentoo will run respectably on my system? All i use it for is
- Web browsing
- Chat
- Music
I chose gentoo because from what i hear it runs well on low end hardware and finding distrobutions for the power pc architecture is actually sort of difficult. I know i can get ubuntu but i dont know how well that would run.
Thanks for the help guys. I really appreciate it.
