Does anyone have any thoughts on what version of Windows would run best on a 380Z? I'm planning on using this machine primarily for web browsing and email and want something as modern as possible without bogging the machine down.

I'm going to say Win98SE. There are quite a few people still using it, and developing useful software and tools for it. I've got 98SE installed on a 600e with kernelEX and FireFox 3.0.11!, that works great.

W2K would be better in some ways, but with 96MB max. RAM I'm not sure how well it would perform. I tried to put W2K on a 770X a while back, and it was just sluggish with 128MB RAM. I went with 98SE on that machine, and enjoyed it much more.

Thanks Neil, that's exactly the kind of insight I'm looking for!

Anyone have more thoughts to add?

I find Win98Lite ('98SE) with Firefox 1.5.12 to be a pretty good combination on a 300Mhz 600.
(Didn't know Firefox 3 would run under Win98 - must look into that ...).
Flashblock (1.5.6) is pretty much an essential extension with today's graphic-heavy websites, and Download ThemAll is mighty useful for it's resume feature. Irfanview for graphics and Total Commander for just about everything else, including file compression and FTP. I still use Outlook Express (out of laziness), but use MailWasher first to keep the junk away.
