thank you... but when i run the coldfusion 8 installer... i get:

<i>Error: Unsupported Platform
This installer will run only on 64 bit mac-intel. PPC and 32 bit mac-intel are not supported. If this is a 64 bit mac-intel, make sure 64 bit JDK is the default JVM.
Close this installer and restart installation using a 32 bit installer.</i>

...i'm not sure what that means or how to set the default, thank you again.

From Googling this is what I came up with.

Applications -> Utilities -> Java Preferences

And that is assuming that you have a 64-bit mac-intel

You're on a Powerbook, which is a PowerPC G4 processor. You need to download the OS X version, not the OS X (64 bit) version.

Re-download coldfusion-801-osx.zip (NOT coldfusion-801-osx64.zip) and try again.
