Dance through the OS Xs

[Pauline Turtle-Bear Guillermo]

I got my PowerBook G3 400 (Pismo) back in August 2000. It was running 
9.0.2 then. I have since done the wonderful dance through the OS Xs: 
10.0/10.1 (made me cry because I am not a techy at all, NOT ready for 
prime time), 10.2 Jaguar (at last a real stable, easy to use OS X!!!) 
and then 10.3 Panther (my love only grows - it runs even faster than 
Jaguar did!). I have the Tiger disk in the other room (Tiger-prerelease 
is installed onto our dual G4 450 Power Mac - we are small developers) 
and I may install it on the Pismo after I get back from Macworld Expo 
San Fran. OR (more likely) I will FINALLY upgrade my PowerBook. After 4 
and a half years, I think I deserve a new computer that can run the 
newest OS with lightening speed (Halo, here I come...).

I have a 8600 in the back room in case I want to run OS 8.1, 8.6 or 9.1 
or my old but very good SCSI HP scanner. I have a PB 540 in the kitchen 
running 7.5.5 nicely as my recipe book.

We all cohabitate quite nicely.

As far as OS 9 being "dead" I guess you will have to stick me in the 
ground with it because
after spending a BIG chunk of change on audio hardware that works just 
great under
the older OS's, it will be a long long time before I spend another Big 
chunk of change
to upgrade.
