<So, G-Group: Why are you (still) PowerPC-based Mac users?>
Me personally?
1. I am NOT willing to GIVE UP enjoying retro gaming and using my
beloved old programs, which I would have to do if I "upgraded" to
Leopard, Snow Leopard and Macintels. None of the present state of the
art will run Classic Mode, and I keep reading about how Sheep Shaver is
unstable. I enjoy what I do, exactly the way I'm doing it, and I don't
wanna stop yet.
2. Brand new Macs are too rich for my blood. I don't have that kind of
money lying around just to buy new crap which won't even RUN my beloved
old stuff. Now, MAYBE in a few years I'll be looking to do new stuff and
the prices will come down to my level, so I'll change my mind about
Macintels, Leopard and Snow Leopard, but of course, by the time I'm
ready to buy them, they won't be state of the art anymore anyway.
Y'know, some of us are just perpetually on the Trailing Edge instead of
the Cutting Edge of technology, and we even prefer it this way!
