*sam* Posted Jul 1, 2014, 6:57 pm	Yeah, they must have stopped being manufactured in about 2005, right? I got a build made anyhow.. can't be sure it works.
Speed_Melon Posted Jul 2, 2014, 12:24 am	yeah, 2005 is the latest I see. I don't think I'd worry too much about it at this point. :-)

*sam* Posted Jul 2, 2014, 10:52 am	That's true, but also remember DW is based on a game engine of 2002-2005 vintage, so in terms of actual horsepower requirements it's very light.. so it's a pity to not support older machines when they're actually capable.
*jimmylogan* Posted Jul 2, 2014, 12:10 pm	I have access to PowerPC's at work if you want me to test something, but I play on a MacBook Air...
Speed_Melon Posted Jul 2, 2014, 10:38 pm	You could sell dedicated DW machines!
