RoughlyDrafted has an excellent article on whether Snow Leopard will support PPC Macs or early 32-bit Intel Macs. In laying out the arguments, the magazine starts from what may seem an unrelated quote from Mary Jo Foley:
The state of Microsoft’s art has led Windows Enthusiasts into confusion, as they tend to think that if Microsoft is doing something, it is probably the only way to do it. As Mary Jo Foley wrote, “Leopard is the first 64-bit only version of a desktop client. Vista comes in 32-bit and 64-bit varieties. And most expect Windows Seven will still be available in 32-bit flavors. Until 32-bit machines go away, it seems like a good idea to offer 32-bit operating systems.” She was apparently being serious, and wrote that in the context of an article insisting that Leopard looked like Vista.
What is entertaining is while discussing whether Snow Leopard will be compatible with what legacy of Mac, totally destroys Foley;s premise. as to who copied who.
