Any word if System 10.5 will have a Classic Environment for PPC macs to run OS 9 and earlier apps under Classic?

If you don't see a yes or no on Apple Web site, I don't either.

I use an app called MYM for personal accounting. Yeah, I know I can upgrade to something else.

I don't see why not. Apple will support Classic as long as it will support the PPC. When the Mac OS is released only for Intel, Apple will drop support for Classic.

There's no reason why it would not be supported as it is now. But you really should consider upgrading to modern software.
