No. Classic is not a system, it is a piece of software that negotiates 
between OS 9 and OS X. I think you will find it in the OS 9 System 
folder. If you plan on using applications that require OS 9, don't 
delete the above mentioned folders.

Common usage seems to have confused Classic with an operating system. 
It is not. OS 9 is the operating system and Classic is the bridge 
needed to get there from OS X.

prove.
