Re: E-Loader and Mac OS X

2005-01-15 by vibesart

Sorry Mathias - you are stuck inthe OS9/OSX void...E-loader was
written around OMS for the Mac, which is solidly OS9. If your Mac will
run OS9 you may want to consider a dual-boot option (create a
partition for OS9) - or - get an ultra inexpensive PC

In any case - do something, it is absolutely imperitive to back up
your work on the XL7 as it is very easy to lose material by accident.
 E-loader is a great, smooth little application.

good luck man!
