Not only stopped development of IE but all of mac. Their theory is, now that they own virtual PC for mac that everyone should have windows on their mac. (Maybe if i get a desktop macintel i will.. until then im sticking with my open source)
"I have a mini with os x on it Boondoggle. and I am a whisky kinda guy for the record. Dosent mean I cant keep the old box running."Absolutely. My recipe above is really for those who have not upgraded at all. But you're going to be running into increasing non-compatibility issues moving forward. Also, there are ways of getting X onto older, not-officially supported hardware. I had Jaguar running pretty well on a Power Computing PowerBase for a while. Software called XpostFacto I think. Another option is to ditch the system and buy a cheapo (sub $200) iMac on eBay that will run X. You can always turn that older machine into a nice linux box.bd
Microsoft did not stop developing for mac. First they make virtual pc. Second they make office. Also Microsoft plans on developing a new office when macs switch to intel. Even though it will be relatively simple to install windows on a mac with office. There will still be a separate office version for mac on intel for users who will not use windows, but must use office.
Uh, maybe it's because even MS knows how old and left behing IE MAc is. Anyone who uses IE Mac is a moron. (Unless you use it periodically to check sites that require some form of IE and you already tried Safari's agent changer.)IE Mac is like Netscape 3.0. Think about it.
@mikew101if your referring to my post.. It was that all their programs were not being activly developed any longer because of Virtual PC so of course it is being developed. And I quickly corrected myself to including Office as the exception.
