Hey, I just got a Powerbook 170 for five dollars at a flea market. It has
decent versions of word, Powerpoint, and excel on it already, which makes it
useful to me. However, I've found a bunch of other old programs for it on
the internet that need to be opened using stuffit expander. My powerbook
won't recognize anything that needs to be opened this way and I can't get it
to recognize any versions of stuffit I've downloaded. I am downloading on
my office pentium something point something and have a free version of
transmac installed to transfer to the old powerbook. However, the only way
I can get anything from the office computer to the little mac is by using
three and a quarter disks. I'm not exactly a master of the high tech, so
lets just assume I know almost nothing at all. I do know that I am running
system 7.0.1, and don't even know where to check the RAM (so I'm just going
to assume it's at the lower end of it's possible specs,4 MB Ram, etc). I've
looked everywhere for an explanation of what to do and haven't found one.
Anyone have any suggestions?
