More generally, Snow Leopard has shown itself to be a very good and persistent operating system.
But no doubt Apple will some day release a version of iPhoto necessitating 10.8. The current version of iPhoto runs on 10.7.5. I guess the real difference is that Apple wants provides software to sell hardware, whereas MS wants to sell software. I admit to think that Apple's policy of dumping support for older hardware is at times morally questionable (when there's no technical reason), but OTOH, I also feel that the opposite policy (nominally supporting hardware on which the OS will not run, but crawl) is just as questionable. If you want to make sure, is a splendid resource. All MacBooks beginning with the 2008 Unibodies support 10.8 and probably also 10.9 (and those were shipped with 10.5.). Having a MacBook does not automatically relegate you to using only older OS's.
