Greetings,
The processor() function seems to return "Motorola PowerPC" on all
machines of that architecture. So, it would seem to be analagous to
the 'sysa' (system architecture) gestalt selector rather than the
'cput' (CPU type) selector. For my purposes, the system architecture
is not very informative. Is there a way to query the system for the
actual CPU type?
Just as an aside, I came upon this problem when I tested one of my
SuperCard apps on a G4. SC's processor() function, which, btw,
checks CPU type, returns "unknown." I started wondering what MC
would do, and discovered that it sees all Power Macs as simply
"Motorola PowerPC."
Any suggestions?
Craig
