Hi,

Please bear with me for what probably seem like really stupid questions.
The extent of my knowledge of Apple's products is limited to the Newton
and seeing other people using Macintosh computers once in a while...

I read that over and it seems to be talking about OS 8.1? I remember
hearing that somewhere around that time macs moved to PPC, and I have a
68k mac. Will the programs linked there work on System 7.5?

Thanks for the link...

So, the version of StuffIt Expander I have is 4.0.1 - will version 6.0.1
(the last one in that directory) still run on a 68k mac, on system 7.5?
There's no indication of what OS version or architecture any of those
versions are meant for :-/
