Ordinarily, I detest the idea of pulling support for anything as recent as just a few years old. But Apple themselves has a habit of ignoring users of anything except the latest version, so I would think that mac users would be accustomed to the old routine of their OS becoming a deadend the moment a new version comes out. So, in this case, I would think that there may actually be justification in sticking with 10.5+, if you were to so choose. But, to be fair, I did stop being a mac user a long time ago (10.2, tabby, or ocelot, or kitty-cat, or whatever the hell arbitrary feline name that was), so my opinion on this matter probably doesn't count for much. Feel free to take it or ignore it as you will.
