Rosetta according to the docs does not support os9 compiles. I'm assuming that this is the end of Classic entirely. It means that it is the end of any possibility (well except through Basilisk or something) of programs such as More, Hypercard and many others, really unequaled in the new or any platform.
Php for 6th graders to learn database basics (field, record, sort, select)? No way. You clearly have not worked with 6th graders before, and that's one of the groups discussed in the article. I know it's lousy for multiple users over a network. But for learning the basics it's very friendly, and in the end I (the user) have a file to show for my efforts.
Database software? Everything I've seen under linux is backend server stuff; not really the best set up for 6th graders learning the nuts and bolts. After years of waiting I still don't see the FOSS version of something like Filemaker.
Hardware requirement inflation. This has been discussed on/dot elsewhere. I looked at the organization website and I'm wondering what system they're installing and what the hardware requirements are. Linux is getting hardware expensive IF people want the latest KDE etc.
