What programs do you NEED Classic for? Perhaps we can suggest
alternatives.
FirstClass Client: My church uses this as a e-mail bulletin board.
I'm using the last version our server supports because it is the
last FC version that will auto open without having to type user id
and password. Will have to give in and upgrade though because it
crashes regularly in Tiger.
Huh? I've got v8.047 which is, AFAIK, the latest and it will log in
automatically
I'm only using it under Panther though.
TouchBase Pro: Address book. No real excuse but laziness here.
Could, Can. Should simply export to a FileMaker file. It started
acting funny after I ran Print SetUp Repair. Giving me "not enough
memory" boxes. Odd.
Apple's Address book or FMP
PhotoShop: I haven't had much time to work in PhotoShop lately,
Newest version is OK but seems excessively top heavy. Then one has
to find out where they put everything. So at times I have reverted.
PhotoShop has always seemed top heavy
iPhoto has limited editing capability. GraphicConverter is pretty good.
InControl: Calendar and To Do List. Now this one goes way back to
7.x. Still works though. Haven't found anything close in terms of
features. Outline. Drag and drop items to Calendar. Easy reminders.
Never liked the daily ToDo list though and would like better sort
options. They folded a long time ago. Alternative suggestions
appreciated.
Palm Desktop (you don't need a Palm to use it) or iCal.
MacDraw: Not really on this list, as it doesn't work at all in
Classic, but I missed it terribly. Found JfDraw.jar though which
looks promising and has even more features and it's free. Others
might want to check it out.
Yeah, I'm still looking for a ClarisDraw replacement. This does run
in Classic but I still want a cocoa app.
