Andy,
Maybe for some, but my eyes glaze over when you start talking about that stuff.
I've already experienced the sunk costs for the old hardware.

Wes,
I wonder if a better answer would be to push for versions of the utilities that
compile on an ARM chip so that it could be run on a Raspberry Pi. Particularly
as it’s already been compiled for an X86 under Linux, so all the libraries
should be there. I don’t think many of us would worry about spending 25 quid on
a little computer to have just to run the utilities and maybe some of the
modern digital modes?

You could always do what some of us Windows users do; keep an old computer
around with legacy OS. My two shack computers and my office desktop still run
Win 7 Pro. To run my N2PK VNA, I have a laptop with a parallel port running
WinXP and I think there is still a 386 laptop out in the garage somewhere with
Win95, just in case :-) Of course the latter two have no WiFi cards in them to
avoid troubles.

Apple plans to not support 32 bit applications with the next major release of

My favorite program for SO2V RTTY, cocoaModem is one of them, and there is no
formal support for it, and the available sources won't build under the modern
MacOS development environment.
I'm hoping for a miracle.
