    I was wondering if anyone has reworked bionc so it will work on a Macintosh running OS9. I have two 6500/225 machines I would like to run bionc on but coverting them to Linux seems to be more complicated then finding a version of bionc that works on them. I would appericate any help with this question.

      So straight on MAC OS9 it will not work; even if you could convert BOINC to this OS then you still face the problem that E@H has no WU's available for this OS.

      The only way I see to get it working, is through the Virtual PC x86 emulator (however I'm not sure if this still will work on a 6500, check!) with at least win95 installed as a OS.

      Linux is no option for the same reason.

      John,
