Ah, that is thankfully untrue. Since I was a pc only house until 3
months ago I had no copy of MacOS, and the 280c I bought contianed a
ruined copy of 7.6. So, I went to apple's site and downloaded 7.5.5, and
it has run perfectly ever since. I did try a copy of 8.1 I bought, but
since I do development, and only have 24mb ram, I had to remove it so I
could actually compile source in a decent ammount of time.
