if that's the reason then of course it's totally reasonable, there's no reason to expect them to burden new code with code that supports older macs if that would slow things down, or even if it wouldn't because it cost more development $$. i suspect, given the nature on *nix that some of the new code could be transplanted by a user to older systems with the older version. which brings up a question no one has answered yet, with x being based on gpled code, has apple ever released source code or is it easy enough to modify the osx code in any case? i haven't plunged into os x yet but i probably will soon, and i do like to tweak things.
