Mac Forum / Country Specific / UK Mac Group / May 2008When do you think Apple will drop PowerPC support
I was just thinking: it must be expensive for Apple to keep providing universal binary support for new software / operating systems. I suspect the only reason they introduced it was to stop people who own f.cking slow G4s and G5s from BAAAWING about obsolete hardware. Suppose 10.6 is called Lion. I reckon they'll say, right, you must have an Intel 8.0 GHz Core Qaudro minimum with 4 Gigs of Ram to run it. And they'll say the clock speed of the fastest G5 is too f.cking slow to run OS X Lion. I mean they have to stop sometime, right? Surely all that sh.t is taking up double the space on my hard drive? For instance I have Office 2008. I bet there's code there for both PowerPC and Intel. Well, guess what mother-f.cker? I don't want the PowerPC code eating up my disk space. > I was just thinking: it must be expensive for Apple to keep providing > universal binary support for new software / operating systems.

Diskspace costs next nothing these days, (on the way to 0.10 euro/GB) And worrying about it is a waste of your time (unless your time is worth nothing) Jan > <childish.ch...@gmail.com> wrote: > > I was just thinking: it must be expensive for Apple to keep providing [quoted text clipped - 21 lines] > > Jan I stand corrected. You have a very good point. I still get a shock when I see how cheap a 4GB USB flash drive is, for example. > I have > Office 2008.
