[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1715256, member: 56379"] Yes…but the "Good Old Days"…were 25+ years ago. That's like 100 years in "computer years"!;) As you probably know…MacPaint, MacDraw, and Superpaint were Mac apps from the 1980's & early 1990's. They were not free when they were current apps. But they might have become free after they became "ancient"!;) It's probably possible to run them in emulation mode on Apple computers that support "Classic"…until around 2005 or so. There's an app called "Sheepsaver" that may be able to run "classic apps" in emulation on Mac's running 10.6. What did these apps "morph" into. Probably hard to say. Pretty much the default paint & draw apps that now make up the Adobe Suite are used by many. But there's probably tons & tons of apps created by lots of developers to do paint & draw "stuff" on modern Mac's.:) - Nick [/QUOTE]
