The Readme 1st files seem to say so. And there's plenty of posts in various Mac fora that speak about running 10.3 and 10.4 on a G3. I'm hoping to find a planetarium program that'll do it - something that doesn't make too many demands on the system - like Cartes de Ciel. Stellarium is very resource-hungry and would really grind on a 350 Mhz machine I'm guessing. Most programs around the ridges seem to require 10.3 as a minimum.
I hate the idea of junking a nice looking bit of kit like this. Seems such a waste.
