You can buy OS 9 but I would recommend that if it is 9 that you want do yourself a favour (Cannuck spelling) buy 9.1. Since you are on the PCI Power Mac list I assume you have a computer with at least 180 Mhz. 9.0-9.04 are not as good as 9.1. This is what the Mac Dealer told me when I inquired which was the better of the 2. I have 9.1 for my PCI 7300, 7500, and 7600 machines I do not think that OS 9.0 or 9.1 comes bundled with the new 10.2 (Jaguar) and if you don't have any pressing need to use OS X it would seem to make the most sense to stick with 9.1 on a pre "G" class machine. To find OS 9.1, consult the Mac dealers in your area and on-line. You should be able to find a place easily. I have not seen OS 9.1 advertised anywhere in recent history, so I will not offer any link for you to follow up on. You should not have any difficulty finding it though.
