No, not my birthday… but the fact that our little hack to keep Dropbox operational on Power Macs is still going strong, one year later.
Read the thread for the full scoop if you missed it the first time. Fun little story of tinkering and experimenting. I sort of got the ball rolling with a nagging idea that Dropbox was only checking for the system version, which prevented the client from loading and syncing. It worked! Forums hero Czo did the real heavy lifting, packaging it together in a much more elegant solution. His most recent update, getting rid of an annoying timer, was also super clever.
Just a fun reminder of the PowerPC community at work, keeping our machines going.
