Hi Tom - it depends entirely on your assessment of the target
audience for your product. Apple doesn't provide any information in
particular to help developers gauge audience sizes, though the
conventional wisdom is that Mac users who buy software tend to update
to the latest releases pretty quickly.
So for a general purpose consumer-oriented app, I would probably
support only 10.4+ if starting today.
This is probably only marginally on-topic for the list, so let's not
elaborate too much. Good luck!

hi there,
I'd just like to ask whether there's any Apple offical advice for
which revisions of OS-X we should be expected to develop for and
support? The reason I ask is that I'm coming across several parts
of the API where more functionality was added for the release of
10.4 e.g. NSString. The deprecated functions that were replaced
will be deleted from the header in the near future, so is it
acceptable just to develop for 10.4 onwards?
Thanks,
Regards,
Tom
