    None of Apple's machine can boot OS 9 since the last Powermac G4. That's right, even the current G4 machines don't boot OS 9.

    I think my TI PB can boot OS9. It's 4 years old.

    My Titanium PowerBook G4 / 1 GHz can boot Mac OS 9. It was the last Powerbook that could boot into Mac OS 9, as far as I know.

    Right... the first two generations of the alum books could run the classic environment... After that classic doesn't run...

    Thanks everyone. I have some programs that only work in Os 9, classic slows them down radically.

    Classic should still run on any G4/G5 machine, just not OS 9 on its own.
