Have I missed something here? You can get an Al-book to boot into OS9? IIRC, the last OS9-bootable machines were the top-end Ti-books (867MHz and 1GHz) which can boot into native 9, Tiger and Leopard.
Macs younger than that can only boot OSX, then have Classic as an OSX process, so long as they're running Tiger. For Leopard and SnowLeopard, I use SheepShaver to emulate OS9. It's fairly stable and does the job but, as you say, isn't as nice as native, booting OS9. cheers Bruce -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Books, a group for those using G3 iBooks and PowerBooks (we run a separate list for G4 'Books).
