Binaries created with Xcode 2.2 on any PPC, DTS, or Intel machine are certified for the new machines, but we stringly recommend that you qualify those apps on 10.4.4 on PPC and the new platforms before shipping.

10.4.4 does not run on DTS machines, nor will it. The DTS machines use a different processor architecture than the machines shipped today, and Apple does not expect to ship production machines with the DTS architecure.

This is extremely disturbing news. While I fully understand that we were not buying the DTS machines and that final shipping hardware would be different I was under the impression that they would at least be supported until I was required to return them. Given the impression that they'd be useful for a year and a half $999 was a very nice price. But now that they aren't going to be supported any more, $999 seems a little pricey for 6 months of use (more like 5 for us).


I sincerely hope that Apple is planning on giving discounts to those who shelled out for the DTS machines only to find that their investment was unexpectedly cut short.
