Thanks James, This will help me tremendously. We have a G4, licensed for OSX, that went to the Mac shop for a power supply/switch faiure, and came back with OS 9.1 nuked and paved onto it. I've been too disgusted to deal with it for a couple months, but this information is enough to motivate me to get OSX back onto it.
