I just ran MacDraw II v1.1 in Classic under 10.2.8 without a hitch.
Ran and

opened without a problem. The key is that MDII won't work with more
than 256
colors and the displays/monitors control panel needs to be set
accordingly.
Priceless.
On my Lombard and my venerable Kanga, I keep track of my petty cash,
checking account, and a little short-term planning on Quicken 4 (for
the crucial stuff, I use Excel -- it's my favorite MS application). I
just looked up the credits for Quicken 4 on the Lombard, and the
copyright is 1988-1993 lol. The application runs like a charm and
gets along perfectly with others. Needs only 1 MB RAM, and it'll
still a "killer app" for me.
Just now I have just included it in my Classic apps on my new iBook,
and I think it's... _generous_... that Apple gives us an option to
use these elder apps. I'm no corporate shill.
Anyone try to run an app that old, that stable, and that useful on a
new Windows machine?
nose up and high shoulders in the Arctic air for shore,
