[QUOTE="mac0s9user, post: 523780, member: 38252"] Your pretty much just looking for an OS 9.0 CD. It should only be one. OS 9 isn't proprietary to any one machine so long as it's PowerPC based. I use an Imac OS 9 install CD on all my G-series computers for instance. After you get it you will have to download the updates to get it to 9.2.2 which was the last version of OS 9. The updates are free and still online at apple.com. Here is one at amazon [URL]http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00002JX1Y/?tag=macforums0e4-20[/URL] And heres one thats exactly like mine on ebay [url]http://cgi.ebay.com/Mac-OS-9-2-Full-Install_W0QQitemZ110189741779QQihZ001QQcategoryZ80257QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem[/url] However I paid about $50 for mine used about 2 years ago. You will have to do a separate partition on your Hard Drive in order to run OS 9 effectively. Classic mode is pretty limited compared to the real thing . Hope all this helps. If you have any more questions just ask! [/QUOTE]
