[QUOTE="vansmith, post: 1640873, member: 71075"] The only time when this may actually be the case is if you're running older software on a progressively newer operating system and thus running unsupported versions on a new OS. For example, running Flash 9 on a machine with Yosemite. I imagine that this combination of older software and newer OS causing a panic would be fairly rare though. ekandre, because you have an Intel Mac, you could very well transition the machine to Linux if there isn't software that you absolutely need that's only available for OS X (you can install Linux on a PPC Mac but it's easier to get supported distributions for the x86 architecture). Have you ever tried/heard of Linux? [/QUOTE]
