My Last Two Hours Enduring Mac OS 9 (Apple-X.net)
I’ve been spending a lot of time in Mac OS 9 for the last few weeks, since I’m now porting a product backwards from Mac OS X to 9. My PowerBook G4 won’t boot 9, but my G4 minitower still does. I haven’t used Mac OS 9 since 10.1 was released a few years ago, so when I go back now it feels so alien. Developing software under 9 is not pleasant – I spend most of my time crashing & rebooting.
