Q: Why has Avid chosen to discontinue developing further versions of Pro Tools software on PowerPC Macs?
Apple discontinued the Power Mac G5 — the last computer to feature a PowerPC processor — more than three years ago. Further, Apple's Snow Leopard operating system will also eliminate support for PowerPC. Avid believes this will further accelerate the retirement of G5 and earlier machines for audio work.

Then maybe it's been hurting apple a lot longer, lol. Even though apple's profits say otherwise
