Hi all. I'm just posting to vent my frustration at Apple and the "requirements" for Mountain Lion.
I've got 4 macs in the house at the moment. I'm writing this on a Macbook Air and I use a 2008 Core2Dup Mac Mini. Also have 2 ageing G4's. I'm sure there are a lot of people that felt the rub of G4's been outdated. A lot of people accepted this as the move from PPC to Intel was indeed a fair leap.
Now however their saying that a 2Ghz Core2Duo will not run the next OS? Thats barely a 5 year cycle!!!
Every other OS on the market has much more modest requirements and this move is clearly about money and not any major technical innovation. The Mac I'm writing this on will surely be my last and I'm going to move towards the Linux flavour to keep my machines alive and to invest in the future.
Does anyone else on here feel the same way?
