IIRC, 32-bit addressing is always on in a PPC system, so even if you got an imac to run 7.1 (highly unlikely), you wouldn't have that option available. You'd have to get an old 68k system and run your app on that. -- http://www.zirconia3.com "If he thought he could fly, why didn't he take off from the ground first?" --Bill Hicks(1961-94) -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
