… because am on the trail to developing an iPhone app. (September 16, 2012). News as of December 23, 2012 …
September 16, 2012 (continued) …
I’ll let you in on some of the issues for an old-fashioned developer.
1) Want to keep an old MacBook on Mac OS X 10.5.8 Leopard
2) Need to get to Mac OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard so that I can use Xcode 3.2.6 or higher, Cocoa? and Objective C
3) Wish I’d thought of this before June, 2012 when there was a really cheap path towards doing this, but that has been stopped … anyway …
4) Have a backup of the disk here … have things to get from Mac OS X 10.6 to 10.6.8 … just need that bit from Mac OS X 10.5.8 to 10.6 …
Box it came in might look a bit like this
… if anyone has a DVD of this that they no longer need I’d be willing to pay $30 (Australian dollars) plus shipping?!
Can’t wait to get to the coding!
PS. If you are wondering why I just don’t get a new Macbook the reason is I want to prove the concept before spending lots of money, and never think the old things are useless (they are often the best!).
If this was interesting you may be interested in this too.
