Re: [CGUYS] No Classic in Leopard! Help!

2007-10-28 Thread Tom Piwowar
After almost 7 years of Apple telling us that Classic is a temporary 
solution, I can't really complain. You can do as I do, I'm typing this on 
a PowerMac 7300 that runs OS 9 just fine. A $99 accelerator card makes 
this Mac run very nicely. It is networked with my OS X Macs to pass 
information back and forth just fine.

[CGUYS] No Classic in Leopard! Help!

2007-10-28 Thread Alvin Auerbach

Sandbagged by an Apple with a Leopard in its mouth! What a Jobs!

No mention by Apple that Leopard will not support 
Classic on my iMac G5, and I didn't heed your 
advice and ordered the thing from Amazon! :(

[I was salivating over Time Machine and Spaces.]

Does this seem okay? Partition my iMac G5 
internal drive and put Leopard on one partition 
and Tiger/Classic on the other. If I put the 
results of my Classic work in a format that is 
readable by an OS X app, then when running in 
Leopard, I could open that file.


It would be better if there was a Classic 
emulator that would run under Leopard, but 
searching the web, people say this is doubtful. 
There is talk of maybe SheepShaver, but that 
takes someone who knows how to program; it's not 
a "you can be dumb and still install it" type of 
application.


Is there a way that I could run both Leopard and 
Tiger/Classic at the same time, à la Parallels?


Alvin
