Post by jsfitz22 »

I am just getting started and would like to start with a very stable and high performance system - would this be:

Thank you!

Ditto. Same config, and no problems.

Thank you - good news as I amnow all set up with 10.3.9 and just need to install DP 4.61.

I heard some are having success with 10.4.3 and DP 4.61, though most seem to think Panther is much more stable than Tiger at this point. Thanks again.
