[OT] Morphos

[Richmond]

This is 100% OT: you've been warned.

I installed Morphos 3.9 on my G4 Mac mini based on 2 premises:

1. The Morphos website describes the OS as Free.

[It is "Free" insofar as it will continue functioning without payment 
but throttles
down to an absolutely glacial speed without what is initially described 
as "registration"
but is then followed by a demand for money.]

2. It should be faster than Lubuntu PPC (which is glacial),
and use resources better than Mac OS 10.4.11.

Blow me down, but the Morphos people then expect me to pay
79 Euros via PayPal for Morphos.

So, I'm going back to 10.4.11, and will upgrade its RAM from 256 MB to 1 
GB in the Summer;
at 24 Euros that makes Morphos look a bit . . .

Sorry, about the OT posting; just needed to sound off a bit.
