Back in May I posted asking if the eMac 1.42 ghz model (being offered for free and is my only machine) was capable of being a daily driver and after a couple of months it really shocked me.
First of all, tenfourfox isn’t as slow or bad as many people say, on my machine it’s fast enough most of the time and has loaded every website perfectly so far whereas WebKit has given me problems. Hopefully this browser isn’t discontinued because I’d like to keep using my eMac for as long as possible because it’s not a bad experience like I thought it would be.
Second, I love all the useful apps and software (that I use daily) this machine already had and can get like office 08 and photoshop, iMovie, audacity and a few audio and music editors.
YouTube plays perfect in tenfourfox when set to 240p resolution and is decent in 360p so it can also do what WebKit can do.
A couple more things...
How do I get OS 9 on this thing? Found some cool games that apparently work better in OS9 and classic mode isn’t the best experience.
Second, should I overclock the CPU to 1.90ghz to increase performance?
