Hi Ron:

I'd highly recommend wiping your Hard Drive clean, then either partition(for 
a scratch disk and possibly a files partition) and install X.2 on the first 
partition with the built-in Classic, or put 9.2.2 on a separate partition and 
run your OS9 apps independantly(as if there was no OSX).

PS7 now has the same memory percentage allocation amount in the Prefs as 
Windows and I haven't done side by side tests to see how this number affects 
performance. I've been keeping it at 90%.

Has anyone tested different percentages?

All the best!
