With v2.9, v3.0, v4.0 and beyond, any version that includes Classic
support will be short-lived, so the practice of using two versions of Rev
will become the norm anyway not long after they release a new Classic
engine.
I didn't really get into the Mac side of the world until a few years ago as
my career has me on Intel MS based machines since the 1980's and that's
pretty much where I "lived". However I was given a Wallstreet G3 a few
years back from a Mac loving friend and discovered how delightful the Mac
is. My main machines are still Windows boxes (my old DOS boxes are long
gone and I have one old Pentium II clunker running Ubuntu) and a Mac Mini.
However - I can run Panther on the G3 Wallstreet. A little shareware tool
called AlPosto Facto (or some similar silly name) allows one to install it.
With OS9 running you install this tool and then boot into a Jaguar install
CD, install Jaguar and then install Panther over the top. So my little G3
runs Panther happily. I admit I don't use it all the time but it is quite
responsive and great for doing simple stuff on (like testing) even though I
generally tend to use my Mac Mini. My point is maybe this is an option OS9
based schools could consider?
