Tiger has Classic, yes. Optional install, I think, too, but once
installed works just like any previous version.

I
don't actually recall when they got rid of 68k compatibility. ?My recollection is that
Classic (the OS 9 environment) did away with it right out of the gate.
Nope. Classic *is* MacOS 9 running in a VM, so anything MacOS 9 can
do, it can - including running MC68K code. Well, OK, not everything -
you have no real native desktop and not all drivers work, or make
sense, in a VM. But most things do. ?Classic itself was deprecated in 10.5
Deprecated?
TTBOMK it was not present in Leopard at all.
