Well, I tried it and got the following results: Programs That Appear Incompatible: Attractors 3.0 PowerPC, version 3.0, application CELLQuest, version 3.2.1, application PAINT-A-GATE PRO PowerPC, version 3.0, application Untested Programs: CONSORT File Exchange, version 1.0.8, application FACSConvert, version 1.0, application (Untested - The program contains no PowerPC code so it could not be checked for compatibility.) In addition, I checked File Guard Remote (version 3.2.1). All of the applications in the FGR folder were "untested". Eric FYI: Microware has been selling OS-9 since 1977. It is a Unix-like real-time operating system that should not be confused with Mac OS 9. It is unfortunate that Apple chose such a similar name. Beware searching the web for "os9" or "os 9" (which may turn up references to IBM's OS/2 as well)! >This morning the weekly Macintosh-oriented TidBITS ran the first of 2 >articles by Geoff Duncan on OS9 (http://www.tidbits.com/).
