Mavericks

[Rob Lewis]

I'm feeling brave and lucky, so pretty soon I'm going to upgrade my Mac mini straight from Lion to Mavericks AND buy the $20 Mavericks Server app. Ought to be fun sorting that out. 

Just as a test, today I installed Mavericks on a 2007 iMac (I believe the oldest machine that will run it) that isn't used for anything critical. The upgrade install went perfectly smoothly and so far so good. 


Should be LOTS of fun sorting all that out.

So when I say "as soon as I can", you're unlikely to see a 64 bit build till next year, and when you do it will also mean leaving behind the PPC users of which XTension has a not at all insignificant number. This current version will be the last that runs on PPC, and so I'm working hard to get as much into it as the compiler supports, feature and bug fix wise before I draw that line.
