I'm not sure that the people still on the PPC architecture are worth targeting. It's been 4 years since Apple switched to Intel. If their hardware needs haven't evolved in that time then I'd assume their software needs haven't changed either; that or they're on the cusp of buying a new machine anyway.
- _delirium 17y agoIn my case, it's because hardware seems to have stayed mostly flat over the past 5 years or so. If I bought a new portable machine to replace my 12" PowerBook, it would probably be a netbook. But today's netbooks aren't any faster than my PB, so why sideways-upgrade? I do still buy and upgrade software routinely (in some cases software upgrades have actually made my machine faster than it was years ago, e.g. with the Firefox speed improvements).
