Hooey. My two Macs are both over four years old. The older one runs 10.3.9, the other runs 10.5. No plans to upgrade further until I decide to replace the older computer. My "closet" computer, a 12-13 year old model, still runs OS 9 and works fine.
The cut-off for 10.6 is based on CPU; it requires a Mac with an Intel processor. Mac OS 10.5 has a relatively modest minimum CPU speed. Apple will support 10.5 until they release 10.7. Where is Apple telling me my computer is too old? Apple is trying to tempt me to buy a newer model, not telling me I _must_ buy the newest anything. That is a M$ model. Thank you, Mark Snyder -----Original Message----- No, I mean what is acceptable for Apple or any other OS vendor to tell you your hardware is too old you have to spend money again. I find it ironic that some of the MFBs have touted the low price of snow cat evading the fact that apple is a hardware company, not a software one..and also not mentioning that anyone with a machine older then 4 years can't run it. ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
