Sorry for not getting back to everyone here. LimeDude -- we're almost certainly not going to do anything like we did for the OS X installer on OS 9. First, OS 9 doesn't have the same kinds of tools available to make installers like this. Second, and probably more importantly, the OS 9 market is just shrinking so quickly in comparison to OS X that we're reluctant to devote our limited resources to OS 9-specific features. I hate to say that, but we just don't have the extra people to devote to it given how few people are still using OS 9 and below (I believe less than 10% of LimeWire users last time I checked).

I'll answer other questions separately.

Thanks.
Thanks for your reply Adam. I will be buying a new Mac this year or next year and it will come with Apple's new version of Mac OS X (Panther) Mac OS 10.3.
