I use this product on OS-9 and it's awesome. I don't mean that as a hyperbole, either. The program does EVERYTHING the old Professional Basic on the PC did (the precursor to visual Basic) did. It did everything AC Basic on the Apple IIgs did (AC Basic was related to QuickBasic Mac but sucked less). It does everything Z-Basic on the Mac did. It's freaking awesome (the old MacAddict happy guy). I wish they'd make a PC version too. I bought this and am upgrading to 8.0 as we speak.
Oh, and their tech support is great. When I found an obscure bug, they emailed me an entire new beta version for free so I could make my program work. These are AWESOME people. If you like to program for fun, if you want to make your old PC, Apple II, etc programs run, this is for you.
My sole (tiny) complaint so far has been that the file I/O routines are very different from what I'm used to. But that's me.
