I'm in the market for a new laptop, and if I knew how long the Intel macs would be supported, I could see myself picking one up. Unfortunately, nothing was said about that so I guess I'm holding off.
- gerardnll 6y agoOnly ‘for years to come’
- toyg 6y agoThey said the transition should take 2 years. I wouldn't expect much more than that.
- macintux 6y agoDisagree. He said Intel Macs would be supported for "years to come" and that they had more in the pipeline. They'll be supported for significantly longer than 2 years.
- 95014_refugee 6y agoStandard Apple support is 7 years from last date of sale. 2 years for transition, so seems reasonable to expect support most of the way to 2030.
- seanalltogether 6y agoApple dropped macOS support for their powerpc architecture after only 3 years, so any claims of hardware support being 7 years is not very meaningful
