This whole experience has gotten me thinking about how useful it would be to have an online wiki for the various versions and pieces of System 9.x.
It would list:
All the various versions of OS 9.x and when and how they were released.
Photos of CDs with part numbers, etc.
Box scans with system requirements, etc.
And, under each version of OS 9.x.x it would give a complete breakdown of what was in the system folder, control panels, extensions, etc. with version numbers.
And, it would have detailed information on important system components (like control panels and extensions). When they were first released, what they did, and which versions were used in which systems.
It would also have discussions of MacOS 9 compatibility with various software and of which machines were compatible with which versions and of how the OS was implemented differently between Old World and New World machines.
What a fantastically useful project that would be.
