The old stuff has its place*, but it's pretty clear that the future, 
for Apple at least, is OS X.

* - but only in the history books. ;)

OK, I'm just having fun; no, I'm not trying to start an OS war here.  
Seriously, I like System 6 and 7 for what they are - AMAZINGLY simple 
OSes that do incredible things on incredibly meager hardware - but I'm 
a Unix guy through & through.  I have great respect for the authors of 
classic Mac OS - it's INCREDIBLE what they did with an OS that would 
run from a single 800k floppy!

Just this once. ;)

PS - happy new year, all.

Thanks. I'll try to drop the subject, understanding this. I only started
using Macs (computers at all) because audio left the analog realm, and
only use 9 on my older machines.

I have an LCIII that I got for a song that I plan to set up as an
automatic photo frame, and plan to use a 7.6 setup as all it needs to
run is JpegView. I'd consider that appropriate technology! I would not
try to browse on it...

And I am very happy getting my work done with X, just noty on older hardware...
