Mac Tiger...Worth it?

You no longer have the option to boot into os9. So you start up in X and then launch 9. It works OK, but it is much better to have osX apps.
Last year I upgraded from Girlfriend 7.0 to Wife 1.0. I soon noticed that the new program began unexpected child processing that took up a lot of space and valuable resources. In addition, Wife 1.0 installed itself into all other programs and now monitors all other system activity. Applications such as Poker Night 10.3, Football 5.0, Hunting and Fishing 7.5, and Racing 3.6 I can't seem to keep Wife 1.0 in the background while attempting to run my favorite applications. I'm thinking about going back to Girlfriend 7.0, but the uninstall doesn't work on Wife 1.0. Please help!

(I'm going to say this in street lingo so it sounds less nerdy.) I know, but what I'm sayin' is, if you gots ta be usin OS9 apps, you don't gotta be runnin two OSez side-by-side, yo.

You need to find a non-resident web based girlfriend java applet!

This is a very common problem men complain about but is mostly due to a primary misconception. Many people upgrade from Girlfriend 7.0 to Wife 1.0 with the idea that Wife 1.0 is merely a "UTILITIES & ENTERTAINMENT" program. Wife 1.0 is an OPERATING SYSTEM and designed by its creator to run everything.

WARNING: DO NOT TRY TO: un-install, delete, or purge the program from the system once installed. Trying to un-install Wife 1.0 can be disastrous. Doing so may destroy your hard and/or floppy drive. Trying to un-install or remove Wife 1.0 will destroy valuable system resources.

You can not go back to Girlfriend 7.0 because Wife 1.0 is not designed to do this. Some have tried to install Girlfriend 8.0 or Wife 2.0 but end up with more problems than the original system. Look in your manual under Warnings- Alimony/Child Support. Others have tried to run Girlfriend 7.0 in the background, while Wife 1.0 is running. Eventually Wife 1.0 detects Girlfriend 7.0 and a system conflict occurs, this can lead to a non-recoverable system crash. Some users have tried to download similar products such as Fling and 1NiteStand. Often their systems have become infected with a virus. I recommend you keep Wife 1.0 and just deal with the situation.

Having Wife 1.0 installed myself, I might also suggest you read the entire section regarding General Protection Faults (GPFs). You must assume all responsibility for faults and problems that might occur. The best course of action will be to push apologize button then reset button as soon as lock-up occurs. System will run smooth as long as you take the blame for all GPFs. Wife 1.0 is a great program but is very high maintenance.

Suggestions for improved operation of Wife 1.0
-Monthly use utilities such as TLC and FTD -Frequently use Communicator 5.0

-Tech Support

You are an idiot. Os9 environment has to run under OsX. Not side by side, but still both running at the same time, fool.

Wow. You're engaging in name-calling in a discussion about operating systems. That says everything that needs to be said about you. <img src="http://madthiu.weblogs.us/emot/=laugh4.gif" alt=" - " />
Wow! You are profound.
You are a guy who gets upset and calls people names while discussing operating systems. Nothing profound about that!
It is just frustrating because you are consistently wrong.

Now that you've calmed down a bit, my point was that OS9 is bundled with OSX. I have a Mac with OSX and the OS9 environment is already there if you need it. Since I haven't actually installed it – it came like that – I could be wrong in saying that you don't need to install them separately.
