- r00fus 6y agoWhat is not working for you? I did the analysis a while back and (I stopped doing kexts back when SIP hit) - I have like no 32bit apps worth keeping (I don't have to use legacy Photoshop).
- reaperducer 6y agoThe accounting software my accountant requires me to use for my business is 32-bit. Luckily I have an old iMac in the closet I use as a media server and for the accounting software.
- corobo 6y agoAt least you’re not having to do it with pen and paper I guess That sounds like a right pain in the arse. I’d have replaced them if they’re not using updated software personally.
- reaperducer 6y agoEasy to say. Not a sound decision with multiple decades of financial documents, both personal and for multiple businesses.
- corobo 6y agoPay the new accountant to deal with the old one haha Anyway yeah it's not my business so it's not by business, nose un-poked-in
- Smoosh 6y agoI haven't upgraded because my Fujitsu scanner only has 32 bit drivers. I'll have to come up with a kludge using SANE.
- m463 6y agoI always wondered why apple couldn't resolve this with a rosetta like interface or shim. Really, why couldn't it run forever? Apple could do virtualization and run all the way back to macwrite or macdraw. Apple just doesn't get virtualization.
