NO one can say that about any flavor of the Classic OS?: Well, sorry, Jonathan, I CAN say that. I actually can?t remember the last time my OS 9.2.2 crashed (although I will admit that my short-term memory is none too good). Admittedly, I don?t do the highpower work that many of you do, and as an old newspaper guy (from the hot type days), I?m fascinated by the discussions of Pagemaker and Quark. I live in Bowling Green and don?t get Louisville Magazine, but am tempted to come up someday and escort Marta over to see just how you do it. Response to Rob, who remarked on Apple?s wisdom in including OS9 with OSX to make the transition easier: Until a couple of years ago, until the HD went ?round the bend, I was still running, as a second Mac, my original LC II with an Apple II card in it, which made my transition from Apple II to Mac a lot happier back in the early 90s. (Who remembers ?Apple II Forever!? ?) I had a new Mac, which I loved, but I kept the LC II because it would run the Appleworks database for Apple II, which I found simpler and easier to use than the new AW version which came with my Mac. Now, with the time coming up for a new Mac (every 18-24 months!), I?m facing the possibility of no Appleworks at all, or some new gizmo which will severely challenge my learning curve. What?s a pore orphan chile to do? Finally, while I have your attention (maybe), will someone please list the OSX version numbers with their cat names, so I can figure out just how far behind I am?
