I had no idea that software for 68K macs could be pirated software.  I just assumed that software that is, say, 25 years old, and not made or supported any more would be free.

I know Norton is still around.  But they will not sell me old time software that will run under 512 x 384 for my Color Classic.  I just assumed Norton was OK if someone were to post it on a web site. Is old time Norton software looked at as pirated software if it is that old and given away for free on a web site?  I ended up buying my copy used in a box on ebay.

I tried going to Apple's web site to see if I could either buy or down load for free anything that my Color Classic could use.  After about a hour or so and not finding anything, I gave up looking.

I was actually surprised that the mac garden link worked.  I would say over 95% of the time I start following links that might help my Color Classic, I end up at a dead web site.  It seems that almost all are gone. 

I was so happy when I found that this place is still alive.
