Hi Nironan12-
At http://drop.io/scratch121zip I posted the Scratch 1.2.1 image file. Drag this onto the scratch.exe file in your Scratch folder and you're good to go! Please keep in mind that this doesn't contain any of the help files, sample projects, etc.

They might be using an older computer and can't run 1.3.

Or they might have the situation we've got:
New software installation is usually done in the summer here. As a result, Scratch 1.2.1 was installed. Scratch 1.3 came out at the start of September - AFTER our tech squad had already finished installations. Once the school year kicks in, they do stuff when they can, as they have other issues to deal with.
In addition, as this was to be my first year teaching Scratch - one 7th grade class and one 8th grade class each day, but with new groups every 29 school days - I did massive lesson prep over the summer...And that meant I was using 1.2.1.
Could I go back and rewrite those lessons? Yes...But I usually teach 6-10 *different* courses in any one semester. (I also teach high school classes and...Well, we're a small school, which means some periods I teach multiple courses.) So rewriting lessons that were just put together will have to wait a little while.

Also Mick has posted copies of the image files of earlier versions here: http://scratch.mit.edu/forums/viewtopic.php?id=2469
But keep in mind he's making this available in a raw form that will require a different approach (as pointed out dragging the image file to the .exe) rather than having an automated install.

You can currently access the Mac and PC versions of the previous version of Scratch, Scratch 1.2.1 here:
Mac:
http://scratch.mit.edu/files/MacScratch.dmg
PC:
http://scratch.mit.edu/files/ScratchInstaller.exe
We will be renaming the filenames soon so that they are clearly designated as 1.2.1. We will update the URLs here once we do.

Well... his computer may not be able to run 1.3, he may just be doing some sort of an experiment or reaserch, or he might want 1.2.1 for the same reason that I wan't 1.0.
P.S. you seriously, need to delete your notifaications sometime.
