Operating System / LC 520 Operating System
March 17, 2016, 20:47 |
Hi all! I'm Typing this from my LC 520, which is currently running 7.6.1; However I'm not sure if that's the best OS for this computer. It has 36MB of ram and a 1GB Hard drive that I've put in. It does not have an FPU, though I'm looking into getting one. Hard Drive space clearly isn't an issue, but I'm curious about performance. Would downgrading to an earlier version of the OS significantly Improve performance, or would it be negligible? What Version of 7 would be Ideal for this machine? Would I lose compatibility with a significant number of programs? And what features would I lose from downgrading to, say 7.0.1 or 7.1 or something? |

New Member Welcome / Welcome to Macintosh

Hi, I've always loved the Classic Macintosh OS, and I'm glad there's still a semi-active community for System 7! I Currently have a Macintosh LC 520, and I may soon be acquiring a Mac SE. On the Powerpc Side of things, I have a Umax SuperMac c500, though its in a bit of an odd situation. I've also a bunch of Newer G3,G4, and G5 Macs I have acquired, though I don't believe any of them are capable of running system 7. System 7, and classic Mac OS is a joy to use. I'm so accustomed to it that on my Main computer, a Dell Running Linux, I've configured the desktop to appear and function just like the classic mac OS! I'm curious, does anybody have any idea of how to make System 7 a bit more usable in day-to-day usage? If I could use the older computers for all of my tasks I would! Thanks all, and I'm glad to be a part of this community! |
