apple gave up on the macs that we are talking about? they have little respect for honouring a computer service when they have new money making hardware. and regaurd these older computers useless.if they show they do not care about their hardware by not supporting it why are you all nit picking on their rights when they care little for the rights of the user? the apple user is usually out in the cold a couple of years after they buy a $2000 computer... and has to buy the new os every year for $100. they like microsoft i'm sure do anything they can to squeeze any competition out of the way using any legal loophole etc etc (dirty tricks.) and back up their rights with legalities and consider themselves a self govening self appointed law. do you really like these guys?

if linux can be used on a ppc mac why not os 4?

my ppc mac has no software to run on it as apple abandoned support for it long ago. i hope it makes apple look bad that they have been shown up for what they are. because they would be usable computers again and not put in landfills like apple want! where is our right to sue apple for not being a responsable citizen and keeping their computers from polluting the environment. i wish i could sue 'em. where is the law to stop them box shifting and polluting OUR world.

i don't like the way they do buisness it may suit the american market but not here. i'm not impressed with the apple user experience. and i can see why they would keep any other os off their systems if they could. constant os upgrade is as bad as the constant pc hardware upgrade. i wouldn't complain if was free. they don't support their own hardware reasonably... the cube, g3 floppy drive on os x, drop support for non apple ppc upgrade cards yadda yadda. a ps3 is a better platform than a mac. but i would prefer os 4 on a mac. and get some justification for the crap apple sell.

(up a few posts.) i think writing a theme for linux would be nice. but is a last resort!

i am a skint flint and resent apple a bit but if amiga os was on ppc mac i would buy it and a mac. i know at least development would still be around for it in the amiga community. and so would be around for a long time unlike apple's you need a new mac, osx won't run on it pollicy, every year...

also i remember making this comment way back when. when eyetech was coming out with the amiga one and people were saying why can't we just run it in a ppc mac! oh well. :-)

failing all this development things seems to be happening quicker with aros. i was also pinning my hopes on that. just need a browser now...

i saved a fiver earlier when i ordered a gp2x tv out cable and batteries from the usa. i took the cheapie postage option. it probably won't be here till after xmas! so i checked out being a donor. (where is my tea and biscuit?)
anyway it seems painless for anyone with paypal account. you got a little cash from me. luckily i've found another candle to keep warm. :-)

it's one thing that it's a law and another for someone to waste their time and rep upholding the law. in who's interest would it be?
