Java on Macs about as far back as you'll ever care to go Been wondering where to grab a Java virtual machine for a Mac running OS 7.5? Well, duh, yeah! Here's the answer: MRJ 1.5.1 from download.info.apple.com. tinyURL: http://tinyurl.com/rxn9j Glad I could clear that up for everyone. There are apparently some real issues with MRJ 1.5.1, and I think Swing is a little wonky. If you can run on OS 8+ with MRJ 2.0 -- a nearly complete, ground-up rewrite of MRJ by all reports -- by all means do. But it's nice to know you can count on a 1.1.x JRE all the way back to OS 7.5. In other news, someone on the LowEndMacs.com Powerbooks mailing list pointed out a place that still hosts Em@iler 1.1. I believe 1.1 was what I ran on my LC and Powerbook 150, and I still remember it, rightfully or not, as the best email client I've ever used for an extended period of time. I'm going to try and retry it on my StarMax later and see how far off my memory is these days. posted by ruffin at 6/03/2006 11:32:00 AM
