Works on my Panther PowerBook too. Stata/SE 8.2. But with some strange 
behavior.

One thing I did notice was that a "more" option comes up midway through 
the drawing of the graph when the default circles are used, and to 
complete the graph, you must deal with the more (hit space, since the 
results window will not come forward). But with the square options, it 
runs right through. There also seems a different behavior after that 
more, with regard to saving temp files.
