When I launched the installer for Classic support (wondering why it is separate from the rest of the OS) I get a message saying "This disk is not supported." Classic support will not install. >> I've been following this thread and I find it rather bizarre that a Mac enthusiast has become so frustrated that he's ready to throw a brick through his machine. Actually I find this rather absurd. As a Mac user I have numerous Macs and I've had my share of freezes and crashes but I've never become so upset that I wanted to destroy them.

Now having done some reading before hand I know some of these cards may not work, so I am prepared to forego them if necessary. But the think I wanted to say is that I have prepared myself for any eventuality. After all I am going to try to run this new system on antiquated equipment. Granted the gentleman who made the post has a reasonable expectation for Mac OS X to run on his G4 but these machines and Operating systems are not perfect so he should also have an expectation that things might go wrong.
