Re: Latest Version of RunRev for Mac OS 9???
I wonder what that exactly means: no 2.7.0 but 2.7.1. or 2.7.2 or no 2.7.x at all. If the latters, RunRev could be accused of false advertisement. I wonder whether that is the same offense in Scotland as it is in the US. Furthermore, if they were planning not to have any 2.7.x release, why would they remove 2.6.x? I guess I am trying to stay optimistic and see their action in best possible light :) Here is exactly what Heather told me... snip I am not expecting to see a 2.7 Classic version of Revolution I'm afraid. snip on 3/7/06 4:09 PM, Robert Brenstein wrote: Hi Dave...

Re: Latest Version of RunRev for Mac OS 9???
My guess it that developing for 2 Mac platforms is expensive for Rev when (I suspect) that not too many Rev users are still using OS 9 or Classic. I still am because I'm still using some very old Mac software that can't be replaced on a Mac OSX platform - like MacProject - that has a 1989 date on it. I'll bet there are millions of Mac users out there as well using ancient Macs that are frozen at OS 8 or 7.5. Then there is this guy... http://aurejac.dyndns.org/ God love him. I want Apple to stand by their promise to all third party developers years ago when they published their Apple Mac Standards volumes - conform to these standards and your application will always run on a Mac. If they don't then you and I will be stale-dated at OS 10.4.5 or whatever. If they renege on that promise and cancel Classic it creates a huge problem for developers who bought into it as there are still a huge number of OS 9 users out there. After 20 years it is still good but it seems that Classic will not be continued...

Re: Latest Version of RunRev for Mac OS 9???
My department's FrankenLab is still running OS 9. Until a year ago it was because the machines only had 128 MB RAM, however, now it seems we're fated to run OS 9 in perpetuity because one of our courses uses some obscure and ancient software that apparently can't be found running on any newer OSs. :-( Judy On Fri, 10 Mar 2006, Jim Carwardine wrote: My guess it that developing for 2 Mac platforms is expensive for Rev when (I suspect) that not too many Rev users are still using OS 9 or Classic.
