Remember that if you purchase the 8.0 package, you will still need to
download the 8.x updaters found at:

As for experiences, a couple of things to remember:

1. Metrowerks (now Freescale) discontinued CodeWarrior with version 10
in the spring of 2006, so you will not likely get help from them.
Version 8.x itself was discontinued by 2004, so OS update and hardware
compatibility is not guaranteed after that time.

2. CodeWarrior 8.3 is expected to run on Mac OS X 10.2 Jaguar or Mac
OS 9.x Classic.  Debugging a Classic app requires you to launch CW in
Classic.

3. Although CW 8.3 was not officially supported on Mac OS X 10.3
Panther or later, there are some steps you can do to get it to run and
debug properly on that environment.  Do a search in this newsgroup as
MWRon (the CodeWarrior moderator at the time) described the steps in
detail.

4. Version 8.3 was the final version to support being hosted on
Classic.

5. If you decide to upgrade, version 9.4 was the last to support
Windows cross-compilation.

6. If you are running on an Intel-based Macintosh, CodeWarrior 10 will
compile and run in Rosetta, but I do not know how well previous
versions ran.  Also, no version of CW allows debugging on Intel.

If you have any more questions, let me know.
