Not Quite OSX, but...
emuelle1 | Feb 18 2006
I figure this is as good a place as any to ask. A friend gave me an old iMac. I keep hearing about how great Macs are, but I can't really afford one right now, so I took the free old one. It's running OS 8.6. Is there anything I can do with it, or any place I can get software (freeware)for it? I can't even install iTunes on this thing. Most Mac users I talk to say I need OSX, but that's not really an option (at least not a purchase option). Is this just a colorful desk ornament? 12 Comments

My friend gave me everything that it came from the factory with. I have poked around. I have a new Compaq laptop and a Pocket PC, as well as my older desktop so I'm not hurting for applications, but I keep hearing how great macs are. I did poke around in the software that came with it. Appleworks does seem like a great suite. I'll have to try downloading Netscape onto it. IE5 for Mac apparently can't handle some of the newer website security features, so I can't get to gmail on it. » POSTED IN:
