BUT, only if they make sure that Jaguar supports all of the hardware it runs on. Right now I still don't think it does. Beige G3 owners and Powerbook G3 wallstreet owners are still lacking some hardware support.
But, other than that, OS X was promised to run on G3 macs. it did with one exception. It was made relatively nice (Jaguar) on those macs.
Now it's time to streamline and go full speed ahead on hardware that won't hold OS X back
I also have to admit that with the original 233MHz G3 processor performance is terrible. I suppose that I will be able to use a tool such as XPostFacto to hack the system onto my computer, but it would be nice to have native support.
As a compromise I could live with it not being officially supported, but the installer shouldn't stop me from installing it if I want to.
saying your mac isn't obsolete cuz you upgraded it isn't fair because apple doesn't care about them, they care about you upgrading your machine
