Lift will be JDK 1.5 compatible for at least 1 year (and probably longer).
 LinkedIn and SAP are both 1.5 shops.  There are tons of other Bay Area
companies (Wells Fargo, Kaiser, etc.) that are also 1.5 shops.  For the next
2-3 years, OS X 10.5 will be common and 10.5 + old MacBooks == 1.5.

It will not be lost work.
