Yah, I have it on a CD, but it only worked with a VERY limited amount of sound cards, drives, motherobards, etc. etc.

It's cool for about 10 mins then it gets boring due to the lack of everything for it.

With a lot of effort, it runs in Virtual PC. DR1 also had a kickass login screen. I have all of those CD's collecting dust along with OpenStep 4.2...

You need Virtual PC to install it. My cd must be fubar because it gets installed, restarts, and promptly panics.

Time to take a look and my DR2 PPC cd...

ciao,
Wow! That's quite cool actually. Really reminds you of how much Mac OS X is the bastard child of Mac OS and OpenStep.

Stickies in Rhapsody is almost identical to Mac OS X Stickies. Notice the demo text

All we now need is someone leak the X86 build of OS X (Panther now I guess) which supposedly is built in parallel with all the PPC development, and I can finally find a use for the two dead HPs taking up space in my studio.
I have Mac

I think if that happened, your sig would become very accurate!

Now, look at this light while I put on my dark glasses: there is no x86 build of Mac OS X, what you saw was sunlight glinting off Venus, or a gas leak or something.
