CraigsList Business Listing, "Get it Right!!!" PowerMac G5

Ok so maybe I'm getting more cranky as I advance in years. But come on If you are a Business and you are listing on CraigsList ... which by the way is not what its set up for. But that's a whole different article...

Make sure your post's are correct so there is no confusion.

Listed here is a PowerMac G5 if you know anything about the Apple PowerMac G5's then you know they came in a Dual Processor or Single Processor configuration with the IBM PowerPc G5 CPU at the heart of the machine.

So What is Wrong with this ad???? (names dates and listing id has be blurred out for anonymity would hate for some one to do that to me.. and as I figure do unto others as...)



If you are confused as to why I'm ranting (you probably are not alone.. :) ) but a Dual Core Processor would denote Intel's Dual Core or Core Duo or Core 2 Duo Processor configuration..

This is very different in the Apple World especially when you are talking about running their operating systems and running applications from Adobe.

OS X Leopard 10.5.xx will run on the G5 IBM PowerPC platform (and lower processors like the G4 as well)

And you can run OS X Leopard 10.5.xx on the Intel Core Duo or a Dual Core processor from Intel..

But the big distinction here is Snow Leopard OS X 10.6.xx This will not run on any thing less than an Intel processor. (unless you are talking a hackintosh OSX86)

As Well Adobe After Effects CS4 is also not able to be run on the G5 (and below) Processor platforms either...

** end of rant *** Still "whats wrong with this picture????"
