So the beta is available for intel as well? I mean I don't see why not as it still has support for Intel.

yes, as the following systems are supported:
iMac19,1
iMac19,2
iMac20,1

iMacPro1,1
Macmini8,1
MacPro7,1
MacBookAir9,1

Kinda bit worrying how they dropped support for some newish Macs.

yes, and around a year or 2 it will only be the M's that are probably supported

In maybe within two to three years, intel support will be gone ?

From Ars Technica:

With the introduction of the Apple Silicon Mac Pro, Apple has finally completed the Apple Silicon transition and booted all Intel Macs from its current lineup. But software support for Intel Macs isn't quite done, at least not yet. The macOS Sonoma update will still run on a couple generations of Intel Macs, but in general, if you're using anything made before 2018 or anything without an Apple T2 chip in it, you won't be able to run the new OS.

---

There is one 2017 Mac that's still supported: the one and only iMac Pro, released in December of 2017, which was the first Mac to include the T2. There's also one exception—the 2019 iMac, which doesn't have a T2 on board but does run the same firmware as the other T2 Macs.

The exception leaves some hope.

3 years would be super good ! I guess that without any new gpu drivers (read AMD Rx 7000 series), our machines won’t be competitive in performance too, so… time will come for us to buy an M3 chip…

Works on iMac19,1 (Wi-Fi Out) but not my my Mac Pro 7,1. Works fine on my MacBook Pro 2021 M1.

i wonder, does it has support for nvidia gpu? no web drivers?


with the joke aside
i think the name is awful

“no we are not merging mac os with ios”

yeah sure they said one thing then did completely diferent just look at system preference on mac os ventura, please tell me if it doesn’t look exactly like an ipad screen

“we like mac because it is mac os, is diferent, we din’t want to change mac os”

once again more lies, say one thing then do the opposite

i really used to love mac os but they destroyed mac os and is turning it little by little into mac ios

we all knew this was coming
eventually once they stop intel support then that’s all she wrote for the hackintosh

Nvidia cards can work if Nvidia develops macOS drivers.
