>Bob, > >Just out of curiosity: What five OSes do you have? One of the advantages of using an older PB is that it is not limited to OS X.x. So I have the following Operating Systems: 8.5 which was what I was using when I installed the new drive. 8.6 which became my primary OS when I discovered that it didn't kill anything that I had been using 9.1 which is installed primarily for tech support 9.2.2 for Classic and possible use if I hadn't been able to get my USB printer & Airport to run in 8.6 10.2.4 for OS X usage If I wasn't limited to using the first 8GB on this PB, I would install 10.3.4 on it as well. But I can't without overwriting 10.2.4, which I'm not ready to do. Actually, I have another OS installed. I always keep a "backup" copy of my primary OS on another partition so that I can grab anything from the System or Finder file, to any Extension or CP and copy them to the primary System without having to reinstall or use TomeViewer. That's why I have never done a clean install in all of the years that I've used a Mac. Bob -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
