Hi, turtlepower -
Does this also apply to the new imac version 10.6.2.
Yes.
Classic is not supported by OSX 10.5 (Leopard) and later versions; and is not supported on any Intel-processor Mac.
Is there anything out there that will work?
The only way to use OS 9 on Intel machines or machines running OSX 10.5 and later is to use an emulator such as mohaas05 has suggested.
Whether running OS 9 in emulation will meet your needs is a different thing - some functions or programs will not work well, or at all. For example, programs that require direct access to the machine's hardware (such as many games do) will not do well in OS 9 in emulation.
Given that used machines capable of booting to OS 9 are quite inexpensive these days, getting one of them is often the best solution.
