You guys have just reminded me that I'll have no way to get FrameMaker on the new G4 Tower I ordered a long time ago. It runs only in OS 9 and the installer works only in OS 9 (not Classic). Adobe has provided ways to install Photoshop 6 and 7 upgrades without requiring a previous install. For Photoshop 6, you inserted a previous CD; for Photoshop 7, you type your previous serial number. So Apple could make this simpler if they'd do something like that in the FCP installer.
