End of support for OS X 10.4 and 10.5
Why pull support and remove functionality? Why not just drop support -- just stop updating the app but still allow basic functionality? There are still a lot of legacy machines that are still in use ...
My Mac PB G4 PPC runs just fine. I do not need "enhanced performance" or new features in DB; the "old" version is a great product and needs no improvement for my purposes. I need to be able to do what I have been doing. I would subscribe (say, at the same cost as Skype) if that is what it would take, although it would be fairer if those desiring all those new features and enhanced performance were asked to pay for the improved version of DB instead. If I have to move to a more recent machine, that and replacing all my software will cost in the $5000 range. Before I drop that much change, it is worth complaining to my elected representatives about business practices in the IT world.
