    New Appearance is under development

    No offense, but while i'm sure those themes were a lot of hard work to implement, I just don't like 'em. I rather like the OS X feel and would rather have a theme that expresses the future of the Mac OS rather than pining for the old days. Mac OS 9 is dead. Let it go. (am I cranky...

    Startup Disk control panel crashes

    Yeah, that's the same thing that I encountered. I used an OS 09 boot CD to get back to 9 then used the control panel in the OS 9 directory to make sure i didn't go back to X. I used Tech Tool Deluxe to diagnose and repair my drive but I haven't been back to X yet to see if things are...
