Vintage G4s

Manufacturing a product and selling it is only a part of the process, because the most important thing for a hardware or software company is to provide the best possible customer support. Obviously, everything has a limit, and it's a pity to see that most products cease being supported when they can still prove to be useful for some users. Unfortunately, this is called "evolution," and there's nothing we can do to stop it. Now, the time has come for Apple to stop providing support for some older Macs...


Starting on the 17th of June, Apple will stop offering support for 5 of its older products, taking them from the "old" to the "vintage" league. These products are the iBooks with 32 MB VRAM, the iBook (Opaque 16 VRAM), the Sunflower iMac Flat Panel, released in the summer of 2001, the eMac and, at last, the Power Mac G4 with Firewire 800.

Considering the above, most G4 computers are now "vintage," so Apple will stop hardware support for them, except for those based in California, where obsolete computers must be supported due to legislation.

Well, this is it...a few more bite the dust. Do you still have a G4 Apple? Keep it well, because next time something breaks, you may no longer be able to find replacement parts!
