Hmm. I'll give this a whirl, have been running dual boot on my macs for years and kinda stuck with Mojave as it was the last macOS to run 32-bit code. Been sitting on my copy of PSCS3 since I bought it in 2007 and I have tons of custom brushes and really nifty plug-ins that I have been loathe to let go of. 19 years isn't a bad run, I'll be moving to Linux shortly on all my Macs, so it is finally about time to leap.

Thanks for the link!
