> Losing the Mirror Door would mean getting rid of the last machine we have that can boot into MacOS 9 natively...
I was talking about a similar move for my brother recently.
He was all for it until he needed the data from a disk image off of an old CD and discovered that it was a ShrinkWrap image. 'Only opens when booted into the old OS. 'Doesn't work in Classic. Much of his old work is archived that way.
He's keeping that G4 and saving his money for a Mac Pro. If Sheepshaver can run ShrinkWrap then he might ditch the G4 after he's moved to the Intel Mac.
