Congrats on the early retirement! It takes guts to decide to do that. :) Python can run on a mac 10.4. In the worst case you may have to download xcode and build Python from source, if there are no powerpc binaries available. That's pretty simple, though (./configure && make && make install). -- Devin On Tue, Jan 21, 2014 at 12:00 AM, <xeysxeys@gmail.com> wrote: > Well, I retired early, and I guess now I've got some spare time to learn about programming, which always seemed rather mysterious. I am using an old mac as my main computer, and it runs os x 10.4 is this too old? It fills my needs, and I am on a fixed income and can't really afford to buy another. I think python would be a good starter language, based on what I've read on the net. > > xeysxeys > -- > https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
