I was looking at my plugins, and ended up looking at Silverlight on several Mac systems.
What I noticed (from Wikipedia), was that only Silverlight 1 runs on PPC. Without knowing about the technical details and trade-offs, I was surprised. On its face, if you build Silverlight 1 for PPC and Intel, would it have been hard to continue to support both chipsets?
So, assuming this was a decision based on marketshare, I tried to search for information on the Mac OS PPC vs. Intel marketshare, but could not find anything on point.
Does anyone here have an idea what the ratio is? It seems like the most important architectural/product decision you would make for a Mac OS X product.
