Will 6.5 run on OS 10.3?

Really, why bother? MUCH easier to go for 9 ...

Do you know if it works or not - he obviously wants to try it out first.

Depends on the protection key; seem to remember that there were issues with old WIBUs and OSX. I also seem to remember a thread in the Hardware forum on this.

Sorry, Dwight ...

As I recall AC7 was not OSX savvy until r2/v2 or r3/v3. I do remember hearing of someone getting some version of 6.5 (presumably a recent one) to run in OSX. I'm not sure if it was in Classic or not. It does seem an exceptional bother though.

I know what you mean, since we have all forgotten the specal and lengthy incantations used to summon the 6.5 demon to the desktop.

On similar topic- Is there any demand for an unused copy of version 6.0 w/key?

Probably so, as long as it's transferable and upgradeable (which it presumably is).

Post it in the ad section here or put it on e-bay (with a notice here to increase the interest).

But a used 6.0 license is suspect. In something that old, look for memory leakage in library parts and if the application was even occasionally used for anything over ten storeys check for XY Axis drift with a set square and masking tape on your display. And jam in the manual, especially if Burginger's kids were using it.
