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 ...
Add another voice of concern here.
Dropbox is one of my favorite tools, and the fact that it can sync my Macbook Pro, Power Mac G5, Windows 7 PC, and various iOS devices is huge. To drop even the G5 will force me to look at other options. The website is a really poor option. I rarely use it.
Of course, I know Leopard users are running old computers. It's tough to have to target our machines after all these years. I understand all that, but you are also diminishing some serious value in your sync service by dropping support for some older machines. Hopefully, the Dropbox team can take another look and figure out a work around? Are there other ways of accessing a Dropbox folder (webdav, ftp, etc)? Can we freeze the older version of Dropbox and limit to the most minimal of features? Help us out.
