ARCHIVED WINDOWS AND MACINTOSH SOFTWARE.
THESE MUCH OLDER WINDOWS VERSIONS (SEE ABOVE FOR NEWER)
ARE STILL OFFERED FOR TWO REASONS. (1) THE NEW VERSIONS MIGHT NOT RUN WELL ON
MUCH OLDER COMPUTERS BECAUSE OF THE GRAPHICS REQUIREMENTS. THE VERSIONS BELOW
WERE WRITTEN ON OLDER COMPUTERS SO SHOULD RUN OK ON 5-10 YEAR OLD MODELS. (2)
MAC SYSTEM X USERS WILL NOT BE ABLE TO RUN THE NATIVE-MAC SOFTWARE (SEE BELOW)
WITHOUT THE CLASSIC ENVIRONMENT (SYSTEM 9.x EMULATION). HOWEVER, USING A
WINDOWS EMULATOR, YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO RUN ALL THE WINDOWS SOFTWARE, BUT I AM
NOT SURE HOW WELL THE NEWER VERSIONS WILL RUN UNDER EMULATION. THE OLDER
VERSIONS SHOULD RUN FINE.

**********MOST MAC SOFTWARE HAS
BEEN DISCONTINUED (JAN 2012)***********
THE OLDER LAB SIMULATION COMPLETE PACKAGE IS STILL
AVAILABLE AS ARE THE ANIMATED CHALKBOARD PROGRAMS, BUT ALL ENERGY SIMULATORS
HAVE BEEN REMOVED SINCE I AM NO LONGER ABLE TO UPDATE THE DATA FOR THESE.
WITH NEWER MACHINES (INTEL
CHIPS) YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO RUN A WINDOWS EMULATOR AND THE WINDOWS VERSIONS OF
