We just want to be able to run it on a G5 with some other imaging and systematics software that's already on that computer, for convenience. For example, there is a great DICOM viewer called OsiriX that is Mac-only (or it was). Now it's commercial, like Landmark Editor, but the older versions are free and almost as powerful. Old doesn't necessarily mean worse. Older versions of MS Word are much better than the latest version. Ditto for Photoshop and some other commercial apps.
The 2011 version of MorphpJ was (apparently) around 7 MB in size, whereas the new version is over 30 MB. That's much more than bug fixes! It's very strange that older versions are not archived someplace. I can understand the authors not wanting people to use beta test versions, but it was an official release by 2011.
