ArchiCAD to Drop PowerPC Macs in 2009

Graphisoft plans to end PowerPC Mac support in new ArchiCAD versions from 2009.

Graphisoft has announced that new ArchiCAD versions will support only Intel-based Macs from 2009.

The next update will still be released for both processor architectures. Development will then move exclusively to Intel Macs, giving users time to replace PowerPC systems.

“Innovation requires the latest technology,” said Graphisoft Vice President Viktor Varkonyi.
