Thanx.

Yes, it's sad, but having said that I haven't any problems running most
stuff in Classic on a G5.

You need to go to the last but one G4 to get a OS 9 boot - the last
version didn't have dual boot IIRC.

Actually, with the very last (and still currently shipping) G4 towers,
Apple went back to selling only dual booting models.

Ah yes, it got confusing didn't it, as they went from dual boot, to not,
and back again.
