Best Browser and OS for G3 Indigo Clamshell w/128 Megs Ram
Hey Everyone,
I am buying an Indigo G3 w/128 megs of ram that's running OS 9.2 and already has some version of MS Office on there. It's never been used on the net at all! All I want to do is e-mail, web surf, and maybe run iTunes. I am also scavenging an airport card from my dead G3 white laptop( Pismo?) and putting that in later, as my girlfriend has a wireless router. Basically, its just a cheap solution as I am working with her at her business and need something inexpensive to work on...that is MAC!
So, my questions are:
1) If I just plug it into an ethernet cable, will it update the firmware?
2) Can I still efficiently use 9.2 with my above described needs( minus iTunes...I know that needs OSX)?
3) What browser could I use and how do I get it if this thing has never been on the net before?
Thanks everyone!
