An interesting article with big repercussions for old programs: http://blog.steventroughtonsmith.com/po ... apps-in-os

Only hope Myrd sees it.

Scanning over that, it's a pretty interesting article, I always dig that sorta compatibility. I wish Apple wasn't so compatibility breaking, that's their biggest flaw, in my eyes.

I saw that. I don't think it helps with Myth, since we don't use MPW for Carbon apps - we use CodeWarrior. (So right now the answer is "build with CodeWarrior on 10.6 that still has Rosetta" for the Mac Carbon build).

What about Fear/Loathing, and something like whatever the Mac OS 9 program is that you use to work with models I can't remember the name of that we got the source for....Apathy?
