Read a few books, learn the ins and outs of UNIX or just play with OS X for a while and it will become as clear as System 5. Surely you only learnt your way around System 5/6 or OS 7/9 by playing around with em right? I know I did! It's just a case of getting used to something new and different.] I'm a new ager I admit, one of the only reasons I originally came on board was that I was impressed by a G4 running OS X Public Beta but having got in I'm absorbed. Keep your minds open, I know old stuff is simpler and may feel better than the new wave stuff but get to know OS X and you will feel nearly as at home. Since I got into the Apple scene I have dived in head first and tried to find as much history, background and info, mainly via these lists, as possible about older stuff but probably have not even cracked the surface of the pond yet, after all I only have 68000 machine and it's a Portable, my oldest machine working is an original state SE/30 running 6.0.8, I have a long way to go yet no? -- -- Mark Benson Any spelling errors are attributed to PEBKAC Vintage Macs List Nanny SilValleyPirate - AIM silicon_valley_pirate_uk - Yahoo!
