Well said - I think this describes what goes through the victims mind with pin point accuracy. Very few people are unintelligent enough to fall for this kind of thing, unless they manage to convince themselves with the flawed circular logic that what is so clearly a scam must be true.
QUOTE: I speak from experience with an Apple Powermac that couldn't go any higher than Mac OS 9 and was only three years old
Intersting... I've got a 4-year old apple laptop, which can easily run OS X 10.3.4 without any singificant problems (a bit slow, but still reasonable performance from a G3 400 MHz).
Nuff said. As for compatibility with older systems, I think Apples approach is better - I can run >90% of my "classic" (pre-OSX) apps in fast emulation. With no crud holding back the new operating system.
