Ann, As far as I'm aware, Tiger does NOT support OS 9 in any form. Mac OS X up to somewhere around 10.3 or so WOULD run OS 9 apps in, basically, emulation form in what was known as Classic. However, OS X 10.4 dropped that provision, as far as I know. But, then again, if an Apple rep told you this, it might be true. Was the rep one of the sales phone reps or a tech support rep, either at an Apple store or via the phone support? If there's an Apple store near you, you might consider dropping in there and asking them about your situation. The people staffing Apple's genius bar are pretty knowledgeable and, usually, more than willing to help out, and NOT just because that's what they get paid for, either!

A purchased an upgrade for one of my applications and it requires OS 10.4 (Tiger) to run. I was told by the Apple rep that Tiger would run my OS 9 applications on this machine just fine. Since I do not have the New Mac technology, which I understand will not run OS 9 appications, I should be OK. So I am asking the people on this list that work on Macs if there are any problems that they have running into running OS 9 applications with Tiger. I know you all will tell me the UNVARNISHED truth rather than a rep trying to sell me the software. So please let me know of any problems that you have run into with Tiger. Thanks All Z ****************************************************************** Ann Zdunczyk President a2z Publishing, Inc.
