It's no rumor. In a few weeks, unless you get a "leftover", your machine 
will not boot up in the standalone Os 9, but will only be able to run 9 
apps from within the Classic "emulator".

Um, well, for me it meant I just bought some new machines....

I think you are right. I guess you would have to get a utility that would 
boot up X from its CD then...
I am sure there will be some if not already..Drive 10 was mentioned.
