Categories
Ah, a walk down memory lane. Sit back and watch his Steveness conduct OS 9's funeral at 2002's WWDC.

I hope they have a similar happening for the death of the PPC. We all will mourn.

Almost as bad, I also have to suffer through semi computer-literate PC-heads saying "I hate Macs!" every 10 minutes or so.

Funny stuff. OS 9 always felt faster then os X.

wowza, i always wanted to see this. YouTube's pretty funky?
Does anyone have a big shed load of Keynotes. I too would like to see the OS X intro.
Where's the part after that? I'd be more interested in seeing them introduce OS X.

It took apple a 2 years to decided to drop support for it. No one is gonna give up on X on PPC because it's not a separate process. It's 1 simple checkbox to create a Universal app. So don't fear OSX on PPC and Intel is here to stay.

osx apps are now universal, there is no intel only build avalable. http://www.apple.com/universal/applications/ for more information.
