Hello I Want To Send A 6gig File To My Brother Via Broadband Dsl. How Do I Do It?? I Tried Email – Upload To Yahoo—nether Worked Can I Connect To His Mac Via Dsl? Thanks Fred

You can connect to his Mac if he's not behind a router and he turns file sharing on. Otherwise, iChat is one way you could do it, I think. E-mail is definitely not going to work s…

which version of OS X needs the OS 9.2.2 thing? beacuse i wanted to install panther on my iMac G3 and i didn't know which one needed it thanks

No version of OSX needs OS 9.2.2. You boot off of the OSX install CD and then depending on your needs you select a type of install, e.g., clean, upgrade, archive and install, etc.…

Yeah, OS X doesn't need OS 9. You need to have OS 9 installed to run Classic (which allows you to run old OS 9 apps), but OS X works just fine on its own.
