Let's be honest, it isn't like a surprise that PPC isn't supported by 10.6. When Apple switched to Intel it was very clear that the PPC would be dead sooner or later. Steve Jobs stated very clearly by the presentation of 10.5 that the next release (10.6) would be Intel only. Now, there is nothing wrong with sticking with the PPC for a certain time. However, there will be some drawbacks too. Software development will be concentrated on Intel and I doubt it that we see a lot of Universal Binaries anymore. I'm pretty sure Apple will continue with the release of security updates like they did with OS 9. Over time, used Intel Macs will become cheaper and more affordable which is something I look forward to.
