[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1679083, member: 56379"] This thread is getting a bit confusing. Just as a review…there are three kinds of Macintosh Apps (in ascending order of vintage): - OS 9 and before Apps - PowerPC Apps - Intel Apps Earlier in the thread installing Tiger was mentioned & running older apps. Since this is on a 2007 MacBook Pro…I assumed "older apps" meant PowerPC apps. But now "Classic 9" apps was mentioned. So by older apps…do you mean OS 9 apps or PowerPC apps. OS 9 apps is REALLY going back in time (just trying to be sure).:) - Nick p.s. Technically there are other sorts of apps. Namely "hybrid apps". Such as apps that span the hardware transitions…such as the transition from PowerPC to Intel hardware. I only mention this since I know someone somewhere out there was bound to bring this up!;) [/QUOTE]
