Well, I just remembered that there is one issue with it, which is 
that 2 of 3 times I try to print, SheepShaver crashes. And when it 
does work it is only to print to a .ps file that I double click to 
open as a PDF file, and I print that. So printing is not resolved. On 
the other hand, I have spent very little time trying to figure it 
out. Other than that, I installed SheepShaver 1.1 with its built-in 
installer, spent 60 seconds setting some preferences, and there I 
was, in OS 7.6 with WordPerfect functioning perfectly. It's 
delightful.

This was on my Intel 2GH iMac. So since you asked, I booted into my 
external drive with OS X 10.5.2, and installed SheepShaver 1.1 there, 
and it worked just as well.

Others aren't complaining about the printing, so I'm quite sure it's 
something I haven't set up correctly yet.

But the bottom line is that I can again run MacDraw Pro on my Intel 
iMac, which is what I was after.
