I was just musing. One day I _will_ upgrade the Mac Pro because it 
deserves it and in the back room I have a cute workable G4 Sawtooth 
nicely upgraded with two video cards and a few hard-drives and a DVD 
burner, runs at least Tiger but the best thing is I've got 9.2.2 on one 
of the drives, boots lickety-split. My oul' Woman is still whining about

Your "oul' woman" is smart. :-) She isn't "whining" about Eudora;
she's pointing out that it's a superior email client. :-)

It's the main reason that I'm still on 10.6, too, although I also
have other programs I like that need Rosetta. Like you, one day
I'll upgrade (although probably not until the next time I get a Mac). 
I have used Apple Mail and get along with it okay.

I liked Eudora, but Mail is OK.  I, too, have a G4 with 9.2.2 as well as 
my laptop with 10.6.8, which allows me enough backward compatibility to 
access older stuff when necessary.  Mavericks, however, seems to have 
none at all.

> I liked Eudora,

I liked Eudora up until about 1999 when I moved my mail accounts to
IMAP. Eudora was never a good IMAP client, and there was always the
issue that Eudora munged email attachments (by design). It was
impossible to forward an email with any kind of MIME enclosures exactly
as you received it.

In the days of POP and attachment-less emails, Eudora was great.

> but Mail is OK.

Mail is the best mail client I've used since I was using elm in the
early 90s, when mail was entirely different.

I liked Eudora too, but realized too late one of the problems in 
migrating its files to a different machine, with or without changing to 
a new mailer.  The links from the mail file to the attachments file are 
full file-system paths, so  if you move the mail file and attachments 
file and the rest of the Eudora structure to a different machine the 
links to the attachment file get broken.  I suspect one could recover 
from that by running a script (possibly just a simple replace-all on the 
volume name part of the path might work) against the mail file that 
edited the paths to ones that point to the right place, but I haven't 
tried it.

As do I, and, come to think of it, MTNW makes 4 software programs I've 
used over the years that didn't go downhill with each update.

Not to mention numerous claims that software doesn't work on Mavericks
when what is meant is "Doesn't work unless I update it."

Can't update what there's no update for.

Out of curiosity, how old is the s/w that you want to protect?

Various ages, actually, but several things that work on 10.6 and have 
the ability to access even older programs from time to time, including 
both graphics and documents created and saved in programs with more 
flexibility than their modern, limited versions.  Pages, for instance, 
can only do half the things AppleWorks could, but can open quite a few 
AW things.  I have yet to find ways Pages is supposed to be an 
improvement on AW, which I did not find a noticeable improvement on 
ClarisWorks except that it worked on both OS 9 and X, which was 
convenient while my local network still functioned until Apple killed it 
with the later OS X+s

There are ways to avoid being hacked other than buying the latest toys.

 Well, I guess that answers my question, posed in a different thread.
It is typical of Apple, though. Microsoft gave WinXP users five years
or so of warning, including a couple of extensions, before pulling the
plug; Apple? Well Apple tells us "Hey, guys, by the way, SL went
obsolete last year. Didn't we tell you?"
 I suppose it's just as well I'll never need nor want another
computer.

Apple used to support only the current and previous version of OS 
X. Snow Leopard is now three versions old. Apple supported Snow Leopard 
for much longer than it did any prevous version of OS X.

This may be the case when referencing how many releases of OS since Snow
Leopard. But is this truly the came when referencing time ?

As the article stated, with annual changes to the OS, the versions
numbers now change much faster.


What I would like to know (which I am sure Apple won't reveal) is
whether Apple has unbiased data on why people are still on Snow Leopard.

Of course they do.

The vast majority are on 10.6 because they cannot update to 10.7 or
later.

Some of us are still on 10.6 because it does everything we need it to, 
it's familiar, and no features of later versions have sounded compelling 
enough to upgrade. Now that support for 10.6 is being dropped I'll have 
to reconsider. I'm loath to go to Mavericks, though, because I 
understand it will break my newsreader and possibly some other older 
apps I keep around.

You'll be hard pressed to find much beyond NewsWatcher that will break.
