You might try http://mac-pro.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc? . I was able to get an OS 9 CD for a reasonable price. I see a link for Quadras at that site too.

Good luck.

Subject: Some Apple Upgrade questions..Help me out, please.

I looked on the APPLE.COM site.
They do not appear to be selling the older OS's anymore.
And they are NOT available for download, right???  WHere can I by

LEGITIMATE

copies??  Reasonably priced??
I got a Mac OS 9.2.1 Update CD Mac OS 9 Featuring Sherlock 2 version

9.2.1

1Z691-3362-A
 - ORANGE 9 with white label -  Can I use that to upgrade an OS 8.X

system??

I have two MAC G3s with slightly different versions of OS 8 on them.
I want to upgrade one to OS9.
ANd Dual boot one for OS X.??  and OS9.
One is a Powermac G3/266, 32MB RAM.
I bought a 256MB upgrade for one of those machines. I just downloaded and installed the OS 8.6 Upgrade from the Apple support site.
Seems like a simple enough questions, right??
I have an upgrade that a bought - and plan to put it in one of those

boxes.

IT is an "Original" Apple G3 400 ZIF CPU Mac & Beige"
I believe that and a RAM expansion will meet OS X needs.  No doubt??

I have an OS X upgrade CD 10.1  but it is Blue and White  (BLUE X)-  I
realize it has to have OS X installed already.
That is why I am looking for an installable OS X CD.

Any help you can provide will be greatly appreaciated.

V/R,
Leroy
