Cellquest/G4/OS9 update

I know several posts have been made as to upgrades to make Cellquest
work on G4's/OS9. I just wanted to share my experience.
I just installed Cellquest 3.1 (not the latest version, by far) on my
new G4.  Instead of installing off the original disks (no floppy  drive
anyway) I used the backup CD I burned from my beige G3. I simply dragged
the Cellquest folder to the G4. Also copied ONLY eveinit (I still have
the ADB dongle)-none of the BD acquisition stuff. Plugged the dongle
into imate (have the 2.0x beta imate driver)- am in business!!

For those of you that only need analysis workstations- I've done this
method on every MacOS upgrade past 7.6.  I always wondered if the crash
issues had to do with BDpac and the acquisition services. (I could be
wrong- but have not had ANY crashes from OS8.1/8.5/9.0, running  yet!)

So maybe less is more- the older version Cellquest seems quite happy
with current MacOS!
And Adam- as soon as FlowJo does histogram overlays (the only thing I
use CQ for these days)- I'm there!

BTW- CellQuest FLIES on a G4!
