I agree, I've got the final release on an iBook G3 300 and it works great.
The slowness associated with PB is gone, doesn't get hung up switching
active windows, etc. Apps are still a bit slow to launch, but waking up
from sleep is much much faster. Speed on classic apps is excellent, much
much better than PB.
Really, I think it will run fine on any G3 with sufficient ram (at least
128 if you want to use classic).
