CorelDraw 3 installs fine on a SoftWindows 3.0 Windows 3.1 virtual machine for PowerPC Classic Mac OS. (Macintosh Performa 6400/180)

Lotus ScreenCam 97 (1998 revision) works fine on a Connectix Virtual PC 5 Windows 95 OSR2 virtual machine on an Indigo iMac G3 (2000, 350MHz) running Mac OS X 10.1.5. (1998 revision player works fine on Windows 11 64-bit)

I was having fun learning and reviewing guitar lessons with my Fender Squire Mini Black Stratocaster and my eMedia Starter Guitar Lessons CD-ROM from 2007 courtesy of a local thrift store and emulated using SheepShaver (Mac OS 9.0.4) courtesy of Infinite Mac. This would also be a quick fix for Apple Silicon Mac users if you run the Classic Mac OS version using SheepShaver, without the need of buying the latest 32-bit Intel version that is incompatible with 64-bit Macs running Catalina and above.

The original HIPRO power supply for the HP Pavilion a6010n that recently became faulty was replaced with a more modern and efficient EVGA power supply! So far, the new power supply is very stable on the a6010n!

Yeah, I totally forgot about my Macintosh LC 475, my Macintosh LC 630, and my 2007 Lion Mac Pro 8-core tower! Around 2017-2018, they were unfinished in personalization. This year, I've completed the personalization of those machines, so all three jobs are done!

The only machines that are not working are the Power Macintosh 6100 (hard disk corruption) and the Bondi Blue iMac G3 (dead power supply). These machines are left sitting on the shelf either way, but you gotta be careful when working with those old computers, because remember what happened when I upgraded my Power Macintosh 6100 to 136 MB of RAM? After the upgrade, the hard disk corrupted when I restarted during a bomb message about a system bus error. Reinstalling the operating system for the Power Macintosh 6100 along with the software would be too much of a challenge, and I found out the CD-ROM drive is dead, and since the laser was on its way out, inserting my discs into the 6100 would read nothing!

At least my other machines work, and the personalization of those machines is all complete except a couple! Katie Cadet's Computer and Video Game Collection is still going strong, so I will update you guys on my blog and on DeviantArt, and other great communities that I am in like MLP Forums, so that you will be informed about my latest experiments and preservation work of computers and video games! For now, take care!

Finally got the 2007 iMac working! I did boot with a Snow Leopard install disc before applying the needed updates for the El Capitan upgrade. Yay! :D

It’s all ready to go! What a relief!
