Meaning...that...only important, worthy applications will run in Snow  
Leopard. All others aren't even worth having.

That's going to clinch a lot of users out there. More than one person  
in this group (including me) has expressed a preference for certain  
"old" software titles, to the extent of maintaining "obsolete"  
computers capable of running them.

somewhere in there is overlap and harmony.
