I was wondering if anyone has any free software that they have used for the early versions of OS X (10.1 early). I have been looking for software because I want to start to use OS X more often. currently the only OSes that I have been using on a daily bases is 9.2.2 and 7.5. If you have used any software did you like it? what dose it do?

Back in the day, I think I used Mozilla 1.3 for a browser. It comes with iTunes 2, and I think it can take up to iTunes 4. Office v.X works on there too.
Really though, if I were you, I'd look at upgrading - 10.1 is a very early OS X release, and hardly anything supports it. Your G4 would have no trouble running Tiger, I'd stick that on if you can get a copy, or if you must, Panther. I wouldn't really want to go any older than Panther, unless its just to satisfy your curiousity.

Has anybody bothered to compile lists of software (versions) that work with the early OSX releases? Would be useful before all is forgotten to collectors who might want to run OSX 10.1/10.2 on supported hardware like a Beige g3 in 10 years. There can't be that much software for those early releases, it seems software exploded for OSX around 10.3+.
