Hardware solutions, such as expansion cards, including the CPU and memory necessary to run the non-native OS and application was expensive,īut offered the best performance. In the past, running non-native software, such as Windows applications on a Macintosh, had its performance trade-offs. So I looked for a software solution that would allow me to recompile the program on my current Intel Macintosh. I no longer had any vintage Macs or software, I no longer have the compiled program,īut I still have a dot-matrix printout of the C source code and resources, which meant that I could enter the source code,ĭefine the resources and compile it, but I needed a compiler to compile with the original Mac ROM.
I had written a few programs with Aztec C on an upgraded Mac 512K. I have been thinking about my past recently and I started reminiscing about my early days of computing, with my first Mac.
