Reason *TO* pick on Windows 10

Regular troll from Apple groups... Sigh. He's not trolling. He's also not completely correct. Up until OS X Snow Leopard was released in 2009, Mac users could and often did run truly ancient software. I, personally, was able to run software written for Mac Pluses with 9" black&white (not grey scale) displays on iMacs with 20" 24-bit colour displays. I still have an old eMac (17" 24-bit display) which I occasionally start up to play older games, which no longer run on new machines because starting with Snow Leopard support was removed. Apple does, however, give plenty of warning that something's going away. They've been letting people know that 32-bit support is going for some time now. They 'depreciated' certain networking protocols (Open Transport) with the arrival of OS X Tiger in 2005 and finally killed it with OS X Mavericks in 2013, a stay of execution of eight years. That kind of thing is not unusual. |
