Too much trouble. > I tend to agree, but I'm not sure what's the relevant criterion here. The last PPC models (PowerMac G5 AFAIK) are maybe five years old and there may be some still in use. Only the latest two Mac OS versions do not run on PPC. If you compare this to Windows, the three latest versions are supported (XP, Vista, 7), and the required hardware (sse2 support) is up to ten years old. But of course, as long as nobody besides Allin is maintaining the PPC build, this discussion is kind of moot. -sven
