Mea culpa! I didn't read carefully enough, thought the question was about OS
X.

I sympathize. I have one app (Folio Views) that has been end of lifed..it
will never be carbonized, and I <must> use it daily, so I am locked into at
least running Classic alongside OS X. Another app I use frequently,
Filemaker 3.0, has an OS X upgrade to 5.5 that is prohibitively expensive
for an individual (and not cheap for the average small company, either). So
for it, I also need to use Classic.

OTOH, I have many apps that work for me in X. 10.1 is great! I've decided to
make it my primary OS, with Classic there to support the outmoded apps as
long as possible. I may be able, some day, to upgrade FMP, but I don't know
what I can do about Folio. I actually have a particular, proprietary text
database that is essential to my work that is bundled with a Folio runtime.
Unless the provider can find an adequate replacement textual database that
runs under OS X (none that I know of exists yet), and decides it is
cost-effective to bring out a new version (questionable), I'm going to be
stuck with Classic forever.
