Just in case anyone was wondering how a PowerPC Mac reacts to Apple Silicon... surprisingly well. macOS 10.4 sees some code marked as "cputype 16777228 cpusubtype 0", and whatever that is, it ignores it.

Yes, I've managed to compile code for new Apple Silicon, a decade's worth of Intel CPUs, and 30-year-old PowerPC processors, and stick them all into the same file. In theory, any version of macOS ever written could run my dumb little app.

Okay... I've gotten a good amount of messages that you like QuickTune but you don't like the brushed metal theme from Mac OS X Tiger…

First of all, how DARE you? Brushed Metal was GORGEOUS!!! 😜

Second... fiiiiiiiiiiiine. * Coming Soon * there will be an update where you can change the theme to the QuickTime 7 Leopard UI. Gone are the brushed metal and glassy effects when enabled.

Here's a quick glance at what it will look like:

One of the betas of #MacOSXTiger had Aqua/Graphite end caps on the menu bar. I suppose it was to emphasize/highlight the addition of Spotlight in Tiger but was balanced by making the Apple logo also have the end-cap look.

I couldn’t find the standard #Aqua version but here it is in Graphite with the Server version of Tiger. A friend brought it up and reminded me of this. Never made it to the final public initial release of Tiger but does look interesting.

Anyone I know got to try it?
