This is another About box in ResEdit 0.8. RagTime 3.2 (French version) - This is what you get when you invoke the About box while holding the Option key: the developers’ signatures. It’s an application for learning to type. Wintype 1.7 (French) - I don’t know much about the history of this software. Microsoft Word 3.01e (French version): this dialog box shows up when you first launch Word. This is what you get when you invoke the About box in Photoshop 1.0 while holding the Option key. MacPascal 7.300 - Note the date: one day before the official introduction of the Macintosh. Some of them were extracted from the application resources thanks to ResEdit, since I wasn’t able to open them either on the PowerBook 1400 or the PowerBook 5300 - they threw various errors and/or forced me to restart the Mac.Īnyway, here we go with a second batch of About boxes!Ĭlaris MacProject II, version 2.1Fv2 (French) I’ve managed to unearth some other interesting vintage Mac applications and their About boxes. I’m still digging through the archives, so perhaps there will be a follow-up to this post. If you’re a long-time Mac user, you surely have StuffIt Deluxe (or maybe just the Expander) on your Macs. PowerPoint 1.0! - Originally it was called ‘Presenter’, then the name was changed to PowerPoint, and in 1987 Forethought was bought by Microsoft for several million dollars.Īnd this is Microsoft Excel 2.2a - in French. This one shows up after dismissing the previous one. WordPerfect Works apparently has two About boxes.

Though I own old copies of WordPerfect the word processor, I admit I didn’t remember there had also been an entire software suite. WordPerfect Works 1.2 - This is a software suite not unlike the more popular ClarisWorks. The text in the black box animates and starts showing authors and credits. This is probably the most amazing find: a pre-release version 0.8 of the popular ResEdit utility. This is a screenshot of version 2.0 of “Les Norton Utilities pour le Macintosh.”

Image Studio, distributed by Letraset, version 0.6! - When I launched this software on my PowerBook 1400, it warned me that it only supports 256 levels of grey.Ĭlaris MacDraw Pro 1.0Fv1. Here the ‘D’ stands for ‘Deutsch’: this is the German version of ClarisWorks 3.0.Ĭlaris HyperCard Player version 2.1 - Not really a rare version, but I love the clipart! Again, this is the French version.ĬlarisWorks 3.0Dv1. The ‘F’ stands for ‘French’ of course.ĬlarisWorks 1.0Fv3. Just to give you an idea, on the Mac SE/30 this About box takes up almost the entire screen.ĬlarisDraw 1.0Fv1.

Enjoy.Īdobe Illustrator 1.1 - The application only weighed 240KB.Īdobe Photoshop 1.0.7 - This screenshot was taken on my PowerBook 1400 running Mac OS 8.1, as you can see by the Platinum theme of the buttons. Here’s a selection of the most interesting findings. I thought this exploration was worth capturing, so I took a few screenshots. I found some very old versions of popular applications and - equally interesting - there were also not-so-old versions of popular applications but in French and even German. I started going through them one by one (the applications, at least the games are more than 200!), and invoking their About boxes to find out exactly which version they were. When I finally mounted that disk image with DiskCopy, though, I found a little gold mine of vintage applications and games. At first I dismissed this and just thought it was a backup of the installation disk(s) for System 7.5.3.

sit archive called Mac OS 7.5.3 and a disk image simply called disk1.dsk. Even after inserting it in the PowerBook 1400’s optical drive, and double-clicking on its icon, what was displayed was completely unassuming: a. So the other day I was going through some old CD-ROMs and backups, and found an unmarked CD-ROM I had absolutely no idea as to its contents. SCSI Probe, which is a great, lightweight control panel capable of scanning/resetting the SCSI chain and mount SCSI peripherals that don’t mount on the Desktop automatically for some reason.The StuffIt suite of products, to handle compressed archives.Disk utilities such as FWB Hard Disk Toolkit.Diagnostic utilities: Norton Utilities, TechTool Pro.

Often I install some old version of ClarisWorks and HyperCard, mostly because I still need to access old projects and stacks.Usually it’s an old version of Graphic Converter. At least one application to do some image editing.At least a word processor (either WriteNow or Word 5.1, mostly depending on the Mac’s age) and a text editor, such as BBEdit.

My usual approach for my vintage Macs is to equip them with a base set of application software like this: Now that my Macintosh SE/30 has a working hard drive, I wanted to search my archives for some useful applications and utilities to put on it. These past three weeks or so, as you know, I’ve been doing a thorough check-up of my vintage Macs. (Updated January 18 and January 20 with more About boxes)
