Gonna post this to OZ, as well, most likely. This seems a fitting place for it, here. My friend has given me an Apple iBook G4 to look at which he cannot get to browse the internet worth a hoot. Pages don't load, 404 errors...whatever. I had thought to go with Opera for him, or Chromium, but am having problems there, as well. I really know about next to nothing about using / navigating / investigating / The OS x system or the Hardware specs for this thing, either. It DOES connect to my wireless router fine. When I try to DL the Opera Browser for Mac, on the G4, itself, nothing happens using the IE browser (WHAAAA!!?!???!?!?! lol...puke browser/hate it!). Can anyone shed any light on how to get a good cross-platform Browser up and running in this OS, which is extremely foreign to me? That aside, if it does not happen I WAS wondering, and HAVE permission to try and get an Ubuntu or Ultimate Edition OS running on the machine, which I think would just be the coolest thing I could do for the guy, myself...any thoughts on that idea?
