You would benefit more from Panther than Jaguar, as it feels generally faster on slower CPUs. I would imagine that most of these applications would work under Classic, but I haven't tested them. One possible problem, though, could be with Toast as it might not have a cleared access to the hardware under Classic. Depending on the version you have, you might be able to download an updater that will make it native under OS X. Same with PhotoShop 7. PhotoShop 7 can run natively under OS X, so if you already have that version for OS 9, you might be able to find an updater on the Adobe web site that will make your OS 9 version an OS X version. -Laurent. -- ============================================================================ Laurent Daudelin AIM/iChat: LaurentDaudelin <http://nemesys.dyndns.org> Logiciels Nemesys Software mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] flowchart n.: [techspeak] An archaic form of visual control-flow specification employing arrows and 'speech balloons' of various shapes. Hackers never use flowcharts, consider them extremely silly, and associate them with COBOL programmers, card wallopers, and other lower forms of life. This attitude follows from the observations that flowcharts (at least from a hacker's point of view) are no easier to read than code, are less precise, and tend to fall out of sync with the code (so that they either obfuscate it rather than explaining it, or require extra maintenance effort that doesn't improve the code).
