From MacRumors...<br><br>As we approach the release of Apple's Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard), Appleinsider suggests that this may be the last major Mac OS revision that supports the PowerPC architecture.<br><br>Looking ahead, those people familiar with Apple development cycles speculate that Mac OS X 10.6 will exclude support for PowerPC-based Macs entirely, requiring that users have one of the company's Intel-based systems which first began making their way to market in early 2006.<br><br>Cited as speculation, Apple may not yet have made a decision on this matter. Apple has made no announcements about Mac OS X 10.6. Based on the most recent Mac OS development cycles, Mac OS X 10.6 would not likely ship until 2009.<br><br>

As well it shouldn't. Even though both of my macs are PPC, I think by 10.6, Apple should drop them from supported machines.<br><br>

When was the last PPC? 2004? 2005?<br><br>and when will 10.6 ....code named "[censored] galore"* come out ??<br><br>(* well it's kinda a cat's name ) <br><br>David (OFI)

[color:blue]"(* well it's kinda a cat's name )"</font color=blue><br>I've seen all the James Bond movies<br><br>Last PPC was either late 2005 or early 2006.<br>OS X 10.6 will come out at the earliest sometime in 2009.<br><br><br><br><br>

I agree but what about poor people like drjohn?<br>Well...that's a bad example. drjohn is probably still using OS 9.<br><br><br><br>

Last I knew, DrJohn has a macbook!<br><br>

What's this world coming to? You can't count on anyone anymore.<br><br><br>

No kidding. I am getting behind the times with my macs. My newest one is starting it's 5th year.<br><br>
