Re: [Flashcoders] no more mac ppc for adobe?

2009-07-15 Thread Kenneth Kawamoto
Officially Adobe CS4's system requirements specify Intel chip set; Adobe has dropped PPC support 
long time ago. http://www.adobe.com/products/creativesuite/mastercollection/systemreqs/


In reality many of CS4 programs do run on PPC but things like After Effects you 
cannot even install.

I have Intel but I also have dual G5, so this makes me sad... :)

I'm asking this because I've just downloaded the coldfusion builder beta 
and  the flash builder beta(gumbo)
and those are not going to run on g5 ppc machines , only for mac intel, 
is that the new direction of adobe or juts because of the beta releases?

I don't know that Adobe have a company-wide policy. It seems to be more on a
product-by-product basis, or perhaps across the CS suites.

But yes, they do seem to be heading in that direction. I don't have any
inside information, but historically they have phased out support for
obsolescent machines and OS's. Support for 68K Macs is long gone. On the
Windows side, I see fewer and fewer products that support the old Windows 9x
line.

By and large, Adobe make tools for developers, and we tend to move to new
technology faster than others.

Cordially,

Kerry Thompson

Since Apple is dropping support for the G5 PPC, I'm sure Adobe is following
suit.
