I don't think that's true. I've been an Apple user since just before OS X's release and the support level was always 2 versions back since like Panther.
- Wowfunhappy 7y agoYeah, but since OS's didn't come out annually, that effectively meant a significantly longer support cycle. You could argue "well, what changed isn't price, but release cadence," but they all go hand in hand. If upgrades were paid, the release cadence would probably have to be slower.
