Let's take this off list.  The quick answer is it depends on your expectations.  The difference will primarily be that the compiler moved forward in time and the UX stuff has changed.  The Unix-ness is pretty much constant.   Clem

I don’t have any Mac hardware (other than an old Mac Classic and a IIci). I know very little about Mac hardware and about Mac OS X. I would like to get a really basic machine that is enough just to be able to build SIMH and verify operation of the emulator, I don’t want to buy an expensive machine because I would only use it for this one purpose.
