<div>Sure, you do not boot into Classic. Classic is emulated
within OS X ***I think.*** You can boot into OS 9.2 from the
installation disk, however.</div>

<div>My Quicksilver 2002 is also, and, as I recall, that is the latest
version. I am running with an OWC Mercury single processor
upgrade, 1.3 GHz, as I recall. </div>

<div>I believe it is. However, once I read that one had to boot
into OS 9.x to see the firmware number. My belief is that if you
are in <font face="Lucida Grande" size="-1" color="#000000"> Boot
ROM Version:<x-tab> </x-tab>4.3.3f2</font>, you are OK.</div>

is different, how do I find out what firmware version is on my
computer?</blockquote>
