      AZ>MS gets regularly blamed for the sorts of things that Apple does routinely -       AZ>and with no blame. For instance, after 12 years, MS drops support for Window       AZ>XP (released in 2002); during the same period, Apple switched processor       AZ>architectures (from PowerPC to Intel) in 2006 and moved from 2002's OS X 10       AZ>to 2013's 10.9 (7 generations of OS). The last OS X version with PPC support       AZ>was OS X 10.5. OS X included support to run older applications developed for       AZ>the PPC platform on Intel - but that was dropped in OS X 10.7. So the owner       AZ>an Intel-powered Mac (all post-2006 Macs) running OS X 10.7 or later can not       AZ>run any Mac application developed prior to 2006.              My daughter is going to have to fight that battle in the next 6 months       to year. She wants to replace her prior to 2006 Mac Book Pro with the       latest model.       ---        þ SLMR 2.1a þ 0         * Origin: Fidonet Since 1991 Join Us: www.DocsPlace.org (1:123/140)    |
