Those days are over, ARM transition and all. Enjoy while you still can.

Eagerly awaiting the next-gen. "ApplePi" with ARM macOS on a raspberry pi 5. :)

They "still have unrevealed Intel Macs" as per the keynote; given that the 2013 iMac is still supported for Big Sur, we almost certainly still have 7 years of support for both architectures in MacOS.

Jobs said the same thing (about new Macs) about PowerPC in 2006. By 2007, Macs were all Intel, and the Intel-only Snow Leopard debuted in 2009. Complete abandonment of Leopard in 2011.

I give it 5 years at the most.

absolutely agree with you, if that. Support times seem to be getting worse as we have more overall system changes these days (or just bigger OSs?)
