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 ...

Wow, just got notice of this, yet it seems it has been announced for 3 months! I wonder if their "3rd party libraries" happen to be sourced from Apple - encouraging them to help reduce the value of the fleet of PowerPC computers and drive new sales? Apple no longer innovates in computers, so they have to drive sales somehow.
