relax,
FreeHand works just fine on my Mac Pro. It's an abandoned application though, so be prepared to migrate (to Illustrator?) in the next few years or so.

To be pragmatic, consider FH completely and utterly dead.

It's been buggy since version 8, IMHO and has just gotten flakier as the
OSes and Hardware has been updated while FH has just sat there.

I love FH. I'll keep using it, but if I were getting back into professional
print design (I do mainly web stuff) I'd be hunkering down and using AI for
clients, while trying out every possible open source and commercial
alternative in the meantime. ;o)

Freehand is OK on my Intel Pro 8 core.
The problem I fear may be Leopard 10.5.

Holding Thumbs.

Freehand Die Hard.
