My Mac is fastish for an OS 7 machine with a 366 MHz G3 and 352 MB RAM. Now I can recommend 7.6.1 also for persons who are not looking for a new hobby. The answer is Internet Explorer 5.1.7 – no compatibility issues with the world any longer.Īccording to Microsoft, it should need Mac OS 8.1, but the Appearance Manager make it work, just like that. While waiting a delivery (still waiting) of a Virtual PC 3 to help with the browser/email client issue, I have been testing a bit. The ability to get a secondhand Mac that is fast in 7.6.1 for a very low price or free and nicely working software does not count much for a person who cannot check emails or pay bills with it. I have had a hard time recommending it to my friends, as they are not interested in computers and just want things to work. Internet Explorer 5.1.7 works in OS 7.6.1!īrowsers and email clients are a problem in Mac OS 7.6.1, no matter how fine it is otherwise.
