| I don't know about anyone else, but I ran os 9 (it was years ago) on an iMac 300mhz with 256mb of ram, and it was relatively slow. So I got a new iMac, this time it was a 600mhh with 256mb ram. I started with up the machine and there was a pretty little screen to set up my internet connection. The machine automatically booted into 0S X, and although it is not the fastest OS ever, it's easily the best. If you don't like the speed, drop OSX alltogether and boot in yellowdog with KDE or something. That should solve your problem. X really isn't slow, it's just not incredibly fast.
