Alright, that leads to another question on my part: What is the 
latest MacOS version that I can run on a Quadra 840AV (or a Quadra 
800, the other machine I have) and where do I get it? Do I have to 
buy an old OS from Apple? Both of my machines currently have some 
version of MacOS installed, but I would rather start with a "clean 
install" of MacOS that is as small as possible.
