I am running Cell Quest 3.2.1 on a new G4 with OS9 using a Rainbow ADB dongle hooked to a Griffin USB to ADB adapter without any problems. This is just an analysis station so the BD Inits are not loaded. The only problem that I had was getting the software to recognize the dongle. I had to get a driver from Griffin to solve that. I thought that the USB dongle bundled with the new version of Cell Quest (3.3) was designed to be used on a G4. Maybe they don't have all the kinks worked out yet. > From: Adrian Smith <A.Smith@centenary.usyd.edu.AU> > Date: Thu, 9 Mar 2000 11:40:50 +1100 > To: Cytometry Mailing List <cytometry@flowcyt.cyto.purdue.edu> > Subject: Re: OS9+Cellquest > > >> Cell Quest runs on G4s running OS9.
