Then install Mac OS X, and then once it is running, you can install all your old Mac OS 9 software in the Mac Classic section of the computer and you have not lost anything...but gained a modern operating system...and a better version of SignBank!</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>On the other hand, it is a lot of work to upgrade...so I will inform you on Wednesday what Todd and I accomplished regarding the old SignBank...</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>Thanks for your patience -</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV></DIV><DIV><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Arial; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; ; font-family: Arial; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; ">Val ;-)</SPAN></DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; ; font-family: Arial; "><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 14px/normal Arial; min-height: 16px; ; font-family: Arial; "><BR style="; font-family: Arial; "></DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; ; font-family: Arial; "><FONT class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;; font-family: Arial; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12px; ">Valerie Sutton</SPAN></SPAN></FONT></DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; ; font-family: Arial; "><FONT class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;; font-family: Arial; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12px; "><A href="mailto:Sutton@SignWriting.org">Sutton@SignWriting.org</A></SPAN></SPAN></FONT></DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; ; font-family: Arial; "><FONT class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;; font-family: Arial; "><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></SPAN></FONT></DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; ; font-family: Arial; "><FONT class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;; font-family: Arial; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12px; ">Tech support by voice or video...</SPAN></SPAN></FONT></DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; ; font-family: Arial; "><FONT class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;; font-family: Arial; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12px; ">Make an appointment by email ;-)</SPAN></SPAN></FONT></DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 14px/normal Arial; min-height: 16px; ; font-family: Arial; "><BR style="; font-family: Arial; "></DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; ; font-family: Arial; "><FONT class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;; font-family: Arial; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12px; ">1.
