I can remember traveling to Japan and writing programs on it using SuperCard all those years ago. It was *so neat* to be able to run on batteries for the first time. 640x400 monochrome screen.

Third or forth time was the charm and the DreamCard Player opened up w/ o crashing. Hmn! But I tried drag and drop with the Launcher and got nothing to happen.

Re: 2.6.1 build Help needed
Hi Stephen, I've been running 9.2.2 on a G4 a VERY long time. A little bit slow by today's standards, but it was my workhorse for years and years. Ooops! only 9.2.1. I thought I had upgraded it, but apparently not. (smile) I did increase the RAM to 768 MB, however, along with 30 and 60 GB hard drives. And it has the monster big Apple Display CRT. Got a hernia every time I moved it around. About 5 years ago, it went down on me and I had to pay Apple $500 to fix it - no AppleCare. But that's the only things I've ever had go bad in 22-23 years with Macs. Joe Wilkins (Maybe I should knock on wood?)

Re: 2.6.1 build Help needed
Joe, Stephen, Classic MacOS simply refers to versions before MacOS X which used to boot in a protected Classic environment inside of OSX. This not being the same thing as Mac classic *hardware*. A Mac classic machine definitely won't run MacOS 9 Classic. Hope that clears things up. Hi Stephen, I've been running 9.2.2 on a G4 a VERY long time.
