Exactly. (My question was meant to be a real question.) She needs to look at why she thinks she needs to boot into OS/9. If there are real reasons that dont have alternatives for OS/X (and there are a lot of them!) then buying a machine that still boots OS/9 is the correct answer. If she decides that she has no reason to look back and that everything is in the future, then OS/X all the way. FYI, there is a review in May 2003 MacAddict of FontLab 4.5.1 that runs on OS X (10.1). It has upgrade pricing for owners of Fontagrapher. ...Duane
