10.6: How to open Freehand MX files in Snow Leopard

You could always re-install Freehand too. Just download the latest trial from Adobe. Then install this fix : http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/504/cpsid_50468.html Your trial will be transformed to an unlimited version. No need of any serial number. Works in Snow Leopard, still have the same bugs as before, but doesn't freeze. Also, Adobe Illustrator CS4 makes quite a good job at opening Freehand files now that it has multiple pages.
