[QUOTE="rman, post: 11023, member: 23"] The education software is the same as the regular priced one. I have an iBook and a PowerBook, and i don't see any hardware specific software. I know some applications come with the iBook and not with the PowerBook. As for keep all of your custom environment, that is a tough question to answer, with the little information we have. I know from experience using other favors of Unix. Some of your sytem file will be changed and you will not be able to get some of the functionality back. Must of us hope this is not the case. That is one of the reasons why I don't alter my system much from the default environment. Now to get down to your question. Looking at the last upgrade (Jaguar), Mac OS 9 was not part of the package. So i am guessing that it will not be part of Panther either. Once you wipe the disk clean, you will need a copy of OS 9 to install. Then you would install Panther. I am assuming this is how you would install it, because this was the installation process in Jagaur. Your iBook specific application you may need to get them off you restore disks. [/QUOTE]
