[QUOTE="technologist, post: 103836, member: 4134"] Another peculiarity is that Tiger does not allow for 64-bit GUI applications. Meaning that 64-bit Mac application will need a 32-bit "front end" that presents the user interface, and a 64-bit backend that takes advantage of the 64-bit memory space and such. When we do start getting 64-bit apps, they will probably include a 32-bit frontend that starts either a 64- or 32-bit backend, depending on whether it's running on a G4 or G5.
