    Ok, but do you have to boot into it? Are you sure you can't use classic mode?

    I don't think it can... why would Apple ship a 4+ year old OS with new computers.. would Dell have both Windows 98 and XP installed on new machines, no.. plus, switching back and fourth from 9 to X can get annoying, you would have to boot up every time you wanted to change into 9 or X



    It might be done, but it does not say anywhere that it can, and it will not come with the computer.



    This one does: http://www.apple.com/hardware/powermacg4/



    It clearly states that it boots into OS 9, and that is the only model

    why would apple ship a 4 years old os with new computers? il tell you why beacuse some programs havent been changed to fit the new os-x user graphical interface... and about booting to change the defult boot os - thats fine with me ive faced linux and after booting linux gentoo belive me a mac would be a snap.

    Well see, you don't need to use Mac OS 9 to use a Mac OS 9 program, you just use Classic and it should work fine, and you dont need to boot from it

    ive got the panthers users guide and it says :



    "for the export user



    in order to run apps that run on the os 9 platform

    you need to have mac os 9.22 installed on your hardrive"



    more questions?

    Yes, and all new computers will have a Mac OS 9 system folder, and applications folder, you just can't boot from it. Therefore classic will work.
