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 ...

Please don't shut down Dropbox for Macs running OS 10.4 and 10.5. Although I have three Macs running Yosemite, my PPC running 10.5.8 is crucial to my workflow. I use the PPC Mac alongside a current laptop, and Dropbox makes this easy. Apps that I use on my PPC are just not available for the current Mac operating system. Losing Dropbox on my PPC Mac will make Dropbox less important, by more than 25%. Thanks for a great program; please don't kill it on the PPC.
