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 my name to the list to continue support for Tiger and Leopard. I still have a number of machines still in these old OS, which are rock solid, running on PPC machines. These machine can't be upgraded to Snow Leopard and are stuck. My Tiger machine is a G3 iBook (original Blueberry), which still is used everyday as an fax machine - saving Fax PDF files in a dropbox folder, so everyone can have access to it. I do have a several File Transporter, which allows me to have my own private cloud. The end of the Tiger and Leopard support, my also mean I will end my Dropbox account (since I kept the paid Dropbox account for these older machines).
For those who are looking to have their own private cloud, you may want to look at the FileTransporter.com, since we are being forced out of dropbox. Note: FileTransporter need Lion or later, but heck, we can't run Dropbox anymore on our old machines, so, may want to start looking for another solution.
