No More Codewarrior for Mac OS X

wandazulu writes "According to an announcement posted on the Carbon developer's mailing list, Metrowerks announced at AdHoc that the forthcoming release of CodeWarrior 10 will be the last for Mac OS X. This isn't surprising given that Apple is transitioning to Intel chips and Metrowerks has exited the Intel market, but it's still the end of an era. CodeWarrior literally saved Apple's bacon during the transition to PowerPC in the early 1990s by shipping the first working set of developer tools for the new platform. And since then CodeWarrior has been the main toolkit for commercial development on the Mac (especially pre-Xcode)."

    Macs suck. Who would actually write code for them? And in conclusion: "Recent study shows Mac users are often more educated than Pc users" that's because any idiot can use a PC but it takes an art degree to use a mac :D
    Worst. Troll. Ever.
