Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Three Months

My Mac will not boot is System 9. Also I should mention that I am using this new thing called OSX. It's been out for about 3 years now but you may have not yet heard of it. I mean who would expect a company that makes processor upgrades and other Mac products to keep up with unimportant stuff like the Mac OS.

I have watched and used your little OS9 firmware updates for a while now and each time I booted into 9 (on my old computer that COULD do that) I thought about how silly and backwards and inept Sonnet must be to not able to get an OSX version running. I thought "One day this is really gonna screw me"

Today's the day.

Welcome ot the 1990's!

Technical constraints - davert

Updating a current updater is probably relatively easy - creating a completely new one to work under OS X is probably a LOT of work. At that point they might just decide to drop support entirely. Which would YOU Prefer, a quick reboot or no updates?

Ignorance seems to be the primary driver of many of these pro-OS X rants. There ARE things that are easier in OS 9. ... if not, I suspect DiskWarrior would have been out for X a year or two ago, along with Quark and a host of other programs.

I am however trying to figure out if there's any need to update for my own machine, which seems to be working well.
