Apple makes all their OS releases free to their users, so there's much lower numbers of 15+ year old Apple OS's existing in the wild to begin with. If you'd said you don't see Apple releasing patches for 15+ year old computers, I'd be more inclined to agree.

Heh, because Apple prefers to arbitrarily leave out support for their older systems on newer OS releases.
