My teacher gave me a Mac II a couple years back, and it had 7.1 on it along with Pyro, and the (now infamous on this list) the Grouch init. But when I had first gotten the machine, I did not know it was there. So, with the speaker all the way up (Who knows why she had it all the way up), I dragged something there. When I did, I was completely STARTLED and scared, because I didn't know where it had come from. So then I took about 5 minutes and searched the Apps folder - nothing. System Folder - nothing. Extensions - I saw a little icon with a trash can, and I got suspicious. I then made a blank folder and dragged it to the trash, and lo and behold, the Grouch popped up and started singing. Just thought you might need to know that :-P haha> Hahahahahaha! No, I don't mind at all. On this note, I went to the URL originally posted by Bruce Johnson to go pick it up last night. It's hysterical, but unfortunately, it doesn't work! The standalone app version allows me to see and hear all, but when I put the extension in my Extensions Folder, restarted the Mac for it to take effect, and then created a whole bunch of empty folders on the desktop to try it out with (hee hee hee, giggle giggle), Oscar did NOT pop his head out of the trash and sing when I threw the empty folders out and emptied my Trash...... This was exactly the same thing that had happened when I tried MacBarf, too, sigh......... I know all about stated system requirements that say "Must have System [whatever] or HIGHER" for certain apps and so forth to run, but do we now have a case of "Must Have System [whatever] or LOWER"? I'm not running OS X here, I'm still totally on Mac Classic (8.6 on the Powerbook, 9.2.2 on the G3)..... Wondering how it would look if a grown woman would throw a tantrum like a 2-year-old for whom it's normal to find things like MacBarf or The Grouch entertaining, ~Yersinia. ;-) -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
