Gone in a flash

Ok it is rant time... I just spent 3 minutes... clicking on the close window button tring to regain control of my browser...Why? Because I am on an older G3 iBook with 348 MB of ram and puny little 8 MG ATI rage graphics engine thingy? Nope I can do lots of stuff online with this lil ole thing.... Except anything that has Flash involved. I am not asking for miracles here... I just figured out half the internet is flash and it frustrates me to no end to try to load a page where someone goes crazy with it and starts playing with the beachball that comes free with OS X. Most pages are fine, I can even watch Youtube videos without too much trouble if I use Safari.... but to do a whole page with all kinds of different stuff going on kills me... well I wish it would just crash my browser..but all it does is make me click 10 times trying to close the window and get on with it. Then when it finally does close my computer continues to click away... this becomes almost comical as it may click another button on another wbpage below it and open 9 plus pages of the page I just closed... dreadful.... dreadful... I may have to try out the fiesty fawn.
...or maybe practice going upstairs and using the Big Mac...

I would recommend you try ubuntu, but maybe go with version 6.06 on older hardware.
