Re: TechTracker Pro 1.1 for Mac OS 8.6 - 9.0.4

While this doesn't help the millions of Power Macintosh users running
Mac OS 8.1 through Mac OS 8.5.1 (to say nothing of the huge mass of
680x0 CISC CPU Macintosh users running Mac OS 6.0.8, Mac OS 7.1 with
Update 3, Mac OS 7.5.5. or 7.6.1)), at least the tens of millions of
Power Macintosh users running Mac OS 8.6 through Mac OS 9.0.4 for
compatibility reasons (including in the Music field) have an option for
TechTracker Pro (if not for a complete Version Tracker Pro and/or
MacFixIt Pro).

Our previous version, TechTracker Pro 1.1, should still work on Mac OS
8.6 through 9.0.4. You can download it from here

Re: MacFixit Pro: Special Offer to Existing Subscribers:

It is stated that VersionTracker Pro and/or other TechTracker Pro and/or
MacFixIt bundle options require Mac OS 9.

I (like most musicians) run Mac OS 8.6 as my primary OS for needed
software and hardware compatibility.

In my MUG (Seattle's dBug), Mac OS 8.6 is the most used OS version among
our Power Macintosh users, and we have quite a number of OS 8.1 users,
as well as Mac OS 8.5.1, Mac OS 9.0.4 and 9.1 users. We also have quite
a large number of 680x0 users running Mac OS 6.0.8, Mac OS 7.1 with
update 3, Mac OS 7.5.5, Mac OS 7.6.1 and Mac OS 8.1 depending on what
models of Macintosh are owned.

Only those with the newest machines can run Mac OS 9.2.x and/or versions
of OS X, unless we use:

Mac OS 9 Forever.com - OS 9.2.x for Old World Machines
<http://www.os9forever.com/os92x.html>,

TechnoWarehouse, LLC TechCache OS X Software
<http://www.TechnoWarehousellc.com/downloads.html>,

XPostFacto (OS X for Legacy Macs) by Ryan Rempel
<http://eshop.macsales.com/OSXCenter/XPostFacto/>

Sonnet PCI X <http://www.sonnettech.com/downloads/osx_upgrade_sw.html>....

While I am a MacFixIt Pro subscriber, I (and many others) cannot take
advantage of any VersionTracker Pro/MacFixIt Pro and/or other bundles
unless at least the versions of Mac OS 8.1 through Mac OS 8.6 are supported.

Sincerely,
Martin A. Totusek
