No Chrome 22 For Leopard Users
With Mountain Lion coming out soon, Leopard users might want to upgrade
OS X Leopard users are about to have yet another reason to spring for an upgrade — especially if they're hooked on Google's Chrome browser. The Chrome team wrote on Monday that Chrome will soon drop support for OS X 10.5 and that future versions will only be available for Snow Leopard (10.6) or higher on the Mac. The version of Chrome that will do this will be Chrome 22, which has just been seeded into the dev channel for Mac, Windows, Linux, and Chrome Frame users.
The announcement came as Apple released its first Mountain Lion (OS X 10.8) golden master to its own developers. Apple says the OS update will become available to end users later this month, though a formal date has not yet been announced. Some users who are still hanging onto Leopard may be doing so due to old hardware, but Mountain Lion's release will put Leopard users three major updates behind.
