About
It has been a long time since Macintosh OS 7 through OS 9 was main stream, yet there is still a large community of dedicated users. There are some good reasons for this.
  1. The hardware was almost indestructible. It is still around and still kicking.
  2. There were lots of add on's including 10x plus processor upgrades
  3. The system is very light. On a computer capable of running both Mac Classic systems and OS X, for most purposes, the Mac Classic system will run approximately 2.5 times faster. So a 500 MHz processor running OS 9.x will run about as fast as a similar 1.2 GHz processor running OS X.
  4. There are people who are very sensitive of screen anti aliasing and find that on the Classic Mac systems they do not get fatigue and headaches.
  5. They are cheap... Now. If you are lucky, even FREE at a garage sale.

For all programs, you receive both a standard FileMaker Pro file (for those who have FileMaker Pro 5.0, 5.5 or 6.0) and the same program bound to a single user, runtime FileMaker Pro 5.0 engine for those who do not have FileMaker Pro. NOTE Runtime engines do not network.
