Contrary to claims that Mac OS 10.6 "Snow Leopard" will drop PowerPC support, Gizmodo has heard that PowerPC support may indeed be living on.
According to Gizmodo.com, the source who claimed to get ahold of the 10.6 seed indicated that work has been done on PowerPC drivers which indicates to them that support for the architecture is unlikely to be dropped this time around. While this rumor may inspire a bit of hope to those who have late-model PowerPC Macs (including this editor), it should be noted that it runs contrary to running consensus that OS 10.6 "Snow Leopard" would only support Intel chips. Apple is expected to introduce 10.6 at WWDC. |
