Questions for MlchaelLAX
I have been reading the discussion 'Reverting back to Snow Leopard', started on the 25th of May, and note your advice :
Once you are forced to migrate to Mavericks (new Mac, etc.) you can run most PowerPC apps in Snow Leopard Server installed in Parallels. Be sure to order a copy of Snow Leopard Server from Apple now ( 1.800.MYAPPLE (1.800.692.7753) - Apple Part Number: MC588Z/A (telephone orders only)); for $20 and put it on the shelf for when you need it.
My questions :
1) Why do you suggest Snow Leopard Server? Would just Snow Leopard itself be sufficient?
I ask because I might find myself in the same postion as the OP, with a new system but needing to use some of the older apps still.
2) Would you recommend Parallels over Fusion? I have used Fusion with my SL machine, although Fusion would need some serious upgrading presumably for use with Yosemite. If Snow Leopard and Fusion will suffice, then I'd be all set for a Yosemite system.
