"Apple sold a lot of PowerPCs. Aren't a lot of them still in use?"
Yes, including two PowerBook G4s here, six years old and still going strong. They're running 10.5.8 Leopard. Apple continues to maintain Leopard, so I have no problem with this approach.

I also have a 17" PowerBook which I just updated the battery
and a 17" iMac both running OS X 10.5.8
in addition to two intel machines. The PowerBook and the iMac are both six years old.
