I know we always want the thing we cannot have, but I always considered OS 8.6 to be the best classic OS for PPC.
Yeah I'd probably have kept it, if I owned the CDs. Ended up putting OS 9 on the Wallstreet. Can't see much advantage to it except that in 8.6 if you go to "Get Info" without choosing one of the submenus, it does nothing. Very annoying. By the way, I love your name and avatar! [8D]
Trash versus WasteBasket labels? ResEdit is your friend.
Tried that years ago. No way to do it. I managed to change "alias" to "nom-de-plume" though. Back in my crazy ResEditing days when I changed the Apple menu to a piece of swiss cheese. [8D]
