We’re running quite a bit of dated software, illi cs3, PS 10.0.1, quark 7.31, and we are considering an upgrade to Mac OS Lion 10.7.2.,

I’m supposing there will/maybe compatibility issues with especially the older Quark and Freehand, but will the older CS3 Illi, PS and ID work okay?

Cheers

Google says yes, provided you do a Java update.

Adobe have a page about Lion and compatibility:

They’ve dropped support for PPC stuff that would still run on an intel under 10.6.
What are you running now? 10.7 is intel only so G5’s are out.

Model Name: Mac Pro
Model Identifier: MacPro3,1
Processor Name: Quad-Core Intel Xeon

Freehand!!! – that curled up and died a long time ago….
