i'm interested to try (or later acquire a licenceed one) a version of maxmsp - but i'm still using w98 and w2000 (i'm completelly not interested to upgrade to xp or vista), and i'm as well a very (very!!!!) Linux enthusiast

do i have to buy a mac to run max-msp, or is planned to be distributed any version for Linux or 'old' w32?

or do (or how fine) the xp version runs on wine/darwine?

maxmsp-on-w982000-or-linux

There are no plans to support Linux and the older Win32s will never be supported.

You may be able to run the runtime under Wine but we do not offer Wine support with our copy protection, so the full app will not work. We have no plans to offer Wine support.

let me know the model so i can download the driver tonight.

If you are a very Linux enthusiast you are probably familiar with Pd 

(Pure Data). If not, get it, it has the same roots as Max, but is much 

more technical fiddeling and has much less UI objects/features...

Its not supported, but I know in the past there where people using Max 

on Win 2000. But as the copy protection is sometimes updated, it might 

happen that this won't work with newer versions of Max/Pace. (And nobody 

will help you if it doesn't work. As the support is a crucial part of 

the value you pay for, the price/value relationship is much, much worse)

Did you consider eventually a MacIntel as hardware replacement? Or get 

one of the older Mac OS X capable machines on ebay. Mac OS X is a nice
