Every piece of code you have to maintain is technical debt and increases the surface area of bugs and vulnerabilities. There is no hardware support for 32 bit apps in the newest ARM chips. Should they also ship both a 68K, PPC, and 32 bit capable x86 VM with Macs?
Why stop at software compatibility, why shouldn’t modern MacBooks come with SCSI and ADB ports? Why shouldn’t Apple desktop computers still support Nubus?

- scarface74 4y agoSo should they update MacTCP for System 7 for my old 68K Mac LC II? They already provide updates for phones and iPads back to 2013 as recently as last month. That was the first phone that supported LTE. Any phone older than that will soon be inoperable as the carriers shut down their 3G network.
