| * iCab (up to iCab 4.7 ('''most recent version''')) |
| * Firefox (up to Firefox 2.0.0.20 ('''somewhat outdated''')) |
| * Safari (up to Safari 1.3.2 ('''extremely outdated''')) |
| Some other advantages of Panther over Jaguar that might prove useful for your kids include: |
| * '''ZIP support''' and ''''Secure Empty Trash'''' built into Finder |
| * '''Fast User Switching''' (allows a user to remain logged in while another user logs in) |
| * '''Exposé''' (enables easy window switching) |
| * '''TextEdit''' now '''compatible with Microsoft Word (.doc) documents''' |
| * '''Increased PDF rendering speed''' in Preview |
| * '''Font Book''' (a font manager) |

| * a G3, G4, or G5 processor at least 233 MHz ['''You meet this requirement'''] |
| * built-in USB ['''You meet this requirement'''] |
| * at least 128 MB RAM (512 MB recommended) ['''Your iBook supports a total of 544 MB of RAM'''] |
| * CD-ROM drive ['''You meet this requirement'''] |
