Tired of how slow my G4 was, I just bought a MacBook and installed

I wasn't expecting this to make all that much difference with
REALbasic performance, but in fact, it's significantly faster. This
appears to be mostly because my old computer had 768MB RAM, and
would wind up swapping quite a bit. With REALbasic, NetNewsWire
Lite, Mail, and Firefox running, I'm using almost 1.2GB RAM, so
it's no wonder.
I'm using a G5 PPC iMac 20"- 2MHz - 1GB Ram - OSX 10.4.7.
I have open:
Mail, Safari, NetNewsWire Lite 2.1, REALbasic 2006r3, REALbasic 5.5.5
OSX, Classic 9.2, REALbasic5.5.5 Classic.
My computer is using 295 MB of Ram and has 728 MB free memory.
If you are using 1.2 GB of Ram with less running, something is pretty
weird.
PS. My CPU is running at idle at 24% with all of these open. With
Classic off, and only Mail, Safari and Rb 2006 it usually runs at 1
to 5% at idle.
