Simon, I believe I have found a bug -- it won't install on OS 10.4.8. When
I click the Install button and then authenticate, it starts to install but
errors out at about 80% of the way through. The final installer screen says
"There were errors installing the software" and "Please try installing
again." I tried several times, before and after rebooting, with and without
my Keyspan adapter connected. I can get the same installer errors every
time. And when I quit the Installer, I get an "Alert" dialog that reads:
"Newton Connection was not correctly installed."

Interestingly, the 3.2MB "NCX" app appears in my Applications folder after
installing, despite the errors. But when I double-click NCX, it seems to
open (the icon zooms out), but the app doesn't actually open.

Thoughts?

Best,

James Wages
