After preparing an iBookG4 1.33 with an mSATA-upgrade for my son as a birthday present and for use at first-year student I've been looking for a comprehensive, non-distracting, all-in-one, fast and versatile note-taking app for PPC, which is capable of "handshaking" to it's intel-mac successors.
I went through the whole thread of this very informative thread about OneNote substitutes on Mac ranging from 2004 to 2011 "What is the Mac equivalent to Microsoft OneNote?" https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/what-is-the-mac-equivalent-to-microsoft-onenote.426460/
I checked and downloaded all the mentioned and available software, to see, what's still possible on PPC/Leopard.
Here's an overview of the latest versions, that run on PPC/Leopard (for a lot of them I had to use the wayback-machine and getting/purchasing a license will need an individual request by email...)
I'm just at the beginning to check and compare pros's and con's...
- Curio /zengobi (v.7.4.4)*
- DEVONthinkPro (v.2.3.5)*
- Evernote (v.2.2.3)
- Journler (2.5.5) (-)
- MacJournal (5.2.7) (?)
- Notebook /CircusPonies (v.3.x) (?)
- Pear Note (2.1.1)*
- Scrivener (v.2.3)*
- SOHO-Notes (v.9.3.6)*
- Together (v.2.3.11) (?)
- VoodooPad Lite/Standard/Pro (4.3.6)*
- Word 2004/2008 (Notebook-Layout)
- Yojimbo (3.0.3) (?)
*) still available/purchase via official homepage.
(-) discontinued but website/download still working
(?) still available via wayback-machine, but possibility of purchase only on email-request
