Could someone place a link of some sort to this article that shows the accuracy of the information therein? It's not that I don't believe what's here, I am just curious to see where it comes from. I am particularly interested in hearing about the PowerPC/x86 support that is going to be simulataneously supported in this new OS. I was under the impression that Tiger was going to be the "end-of-the-line" OS for PowerPC systems. It's very interesting to see things stating otherwise. mdjkarazim 2005-07-07 18:27:25 (UTC)
