I just ran MacDraw II v1.1 in Classic under 10.2.8 without a hitch. Ran and saved fine on a 120GB hard drive. Then I rebooted into 9.2.2 and the file 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,
