As others have pointed out, no one is being forced to buy new hardware.
Our older computers haven't lost any of their capabilities because
Snow Leopard has come out.
It makes just as much sense to rail about being "made" to buy a new
computer because you want to use 4GB of ram and your old one maxes
out at 512K, or because you want to add a 500GB hard drive and your
old machine's hard drive controller won't recognize more than 130GB.
The same for USB 1 vs. 2, IDE vs. SATA, we all could continue the list
ourselves for quite a while. I don't see that the fact that these are
hardware modifications rather than a software one changes the issue.

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.
