rs64 machines were much more expensive and much less popular than their ppc brethren, so support dried up about five minutes after the ppc / rs64 / power unification they were rad as hell though gently caress yeah i would keep an f80 in my collection if i stumbled across one

they should bring back the xserve or similar otherwise your ios build farms have to run on rackmounted macs pro and that is just ridiculous

i also wouldn't be that surprised if their own internal build farms cross-compiled on linux or solaris and sidestepped the whole problem apple, historically, wasn't all-osx. maybe that has changed, but i doubt it.
