Here’s a question for some informed antique software maven out there—I’m stumped. I have a pressing need for the last release of Claris Draw (for Mac), an application that last saw the day of light in 1994. A phone call to Apple yielded no help whatsoever; a follow-up call and an email to Filemaker (the spinout that carries what’s left of the old Claris) was a similar dead end. I spoke with nice people who put me on hold, asked supervisors, came back to the line, and basically told me they no longer sell the product and wished me good luck. I did come across a demo that won’t save/copy/cut/etc., but this won’t quite do the job. How would any of you proceed? Too bad some of the big players won’t release their ancient orphans into the public domain.
