System Requirements

The information you need to get CrystalMaker
up and running on your Macintosh.


COMPUTER SPECIFICATIONS

MacOS-compatible computer with 68020, 68030, 68040 or PowerPC processor (Power Macintosh version), and running System 7.0, or later (including MacOS8). CrystalMaker will not run on the oldest Mac models (e.g., Mac Plus) which have the 68000 processor. CD-ROM Edition requires a double-speed, or faster, CD-ROM drive.

A minimum of 3 MB of free RAM must be allocated to CrystalMaker (for a 14-inch colour monitor running in 8-bit colour). Larger monitors and greater colour depths will require more RAM (e.g., we recommend 8 MB for a 21-inch colour monitor running in thousands or millions of colours).


INSTALLING CRYSTALMAKER

The full commercial version of CrystalMaker is available in optimized versions for regular (68K) and PowerPC Mac's. The demonstration version is distributed as a "Fat Binary" program, which contains both 68020 code, and PowerMac-native code. The program will automatically detect what sort of Mac you have, and will run the correct code. (Note for users with regular Macs: The full commercial CrystalMaker package includes a version optimized for math-coprocessors (FPU) - which runs 2-3 times faster than the non-FPU version included with the demo version).
