My old Wallstreet still runs like a top - OS 9, big bright screen, and the best keyboard Apple ever made for laptops. I still use it as a writing station using MS Office - 2 good batteries and I'm good to go for hours (I could do the work on my MacBook Pro but there's always the temptation of the internet). I get questions at the library every once in a while - people see the upside down Apple logo and wonder what the computer is.
Oh - and I still play old games too. Guilty pleasure. -----Original Message----- From: John-Robert La Porta <johnrlapo...@gmail.com> To: Vintage Macs <vintage-macs@googlegroups.com> Sent: Thu, Feb 4, 2016 8:10 pm Subject: Re: What do you use your vintage mac for Pretty much one thing: play the games I grew up with! I need to maintain a fairly large spread from System 6 to early PPC versions of OS X.

What software do you still find useful? Have you done anything to make it more useful? My biggest thing is being able to print, which I have had some success by using a mac mini, but that requires a mac with an Ethernet connection. I was using my G4 mac running OS9 for quicken, but recently stopped. -- -- ----- You received this message because you are a member of the Vintage Macs group.
