I'd have to agree there, I've just replaced the conner hd that was installed
in my 580CD. System 7.6.1 doesn't use anywhere near us much RAM as 8. A few
months ago I would have said go all the way to 8.1 (like mine is now) but after
using an 8100 (my first time on a 8000 machine) with 7.6.1, I'd say my work mac
is _the_ most stable machine I've ever used ... I might even go back to 7.6.1
on my 580CD and the Quadra950 (ex Workgroup Server 95).

... but OS8 is kinda cool though on a 68k mac. =) Now if I could only get
debian m68k lunix to work :-P
