[G4] Mac Classic Environment

[Lars-Gunnar Larson]

According to what you say you don´t need Classic, which is very imortant for me with a lot of old  but useful programs.

Sorry to say I have nowadays the same problem with Firefox, some months ago Firefox worked OK but now K have to open the dmg-file. OSV 10.3.9
