Ebookstore 10 Minute Guide To Netscape For Mac

I have a LC 580 running Mac OS 7.6.1. It installed Netscape Navigator as part of the Mac OS 7.6.1 installation routine. Whenever I try to launch Netscape Navigator it unexpected quits with a error of Type 2. Cyberdog 2.0 almost works too but I keep getting Open Transport errors related to networking & memory.

I have a Sonic Systems comm slot ethernet card installed & the LC 580 has 52 MB of RAM. I had to extract the comm slot ethernet driver from the Mac OS 7.6 Install Tome to even get this far by using TomeViewer. I also found a Apple Knowledge Base article related to the Netscape Navigator issue but none of the solutions in the article worked for me. Are there any advantages to upgrading Netscape Navigator to 4.08? Does the latest version of NCSA Mosaic including NCSA Mosaic Beta 4 work correctly with Open Transport 1.1.2? I read in NCSA Mosaic's User Guide that it requires MacTCP but am wondering if that document is outdated & in need of updating anyway.

How do I get Cyberdog to work reliably on 0 Macs? It runs after I install OpenDoc 1.2.1 & Cyberdog 2.0 itself. The main problem is I keep getting networking related errors about Open Transport malfunctioning somehow whenever I try to open the links to Apple's site from Cyberdog's Notebook. Is there a way to increase the memory allocated to the Open Transport extensions to prevent this? I read about the Netscape Defrost extension in the book Sad Mac, Bombs & Other Disasters And What to do about Them & was wondering how well it actually works or if it helps at all.

I recently installed 10.3.9 on my tray-loader iMac G3 333MHz. It only has 192MB of RAM, so I wasn't expecting it to work well at all. But in spite of this it handles quite reasonably.

It only gets slow when it has to do more than one thing at a time. I found stock Safari to be less than ideal formatting and compatibility wise, so I tried iCab too. Long story short, for the most part, neither has a significant advantage over the other based on my own experience. If you are just doing light browsing such as surfing these forums, then they will both suffice aptly. Anything heavier, and you are going to need TFF and Tiger. I also need more RAM for my iMac G3.but not before I pointlessly max out my 8600 to 1GB!

I was very hesitant to put any version of OS X on such a small drive, but I was pleasantly surprised. Not that a bit more room would be nice. I actually have a bunch of 40GB IDE drives my Computer Science department threw out from old Dell's.

Might try putting one of those in instead this summer. I've put it off because opening and accessing the insides of those G3's is a tedious job. /COLOR Aye, while installing Panther, I was shocked to find out how much room I could save on my iMac G3's tiny 6GB driver by simply deselecting all the languages, that Apple optimistically assumes I can make use of.

Of course, I've replaced all of mine with larger drives for my own sanity(those old WD Caviars are loud and slow) but are fine.

Even then, you are limited to installing OS X in the first 8gb(or really a little over 7gb) of the drive. One of my B&Ws has the OEM 12gb Quantum Fireball which had no issues with 10.4. The sound of a Fireball spinning up and accessing brings back enough fond memories for me that I've left it.

I suspect that all the NWR computers which were updated after the Sawtooth came out in late August of '99 could do it, although I wouldn't swear to it. I'm pretty sure I've booted my iMac G3(either early or mid 2001-I couldn't swear which) off USB. I'm not surprised that a Pismo(early 2000) can, but would be surprised if a Lombard(May '99) could. I find it interesting that there's a lot of prevailing internet 'wisdom' that PPC Macs can't boot off USB.

On the majority of Powermac G4s and Powerbook G4s that have USB 1.1(Yikes! Excepted), it's even easy as you can select the USB disk from boot manager on startup. This was an advertised feature, although admittedly it's very slow(15 minutes to a useable desktop from an external USB drive with Leopard installed on my TiBook).

Even though the feature was there, I think it was as much to make you crave Firewire(an Apple technology) for booting. USB 2.0 PPC Macs can-as we all know-be booted from OF without too much trouble. We can theorize all we want, but I suspect the removal of this feature in USB 2.0 Macs was to-again-steer people toward Firewire externals.
