As a developer they will have had access to W8 since it's beta release, long before public release, maybe a year before? How come they suddenly wake up and weeks after the release of W8 make a statement like that?

I thought they had dropped support for SCSI years ago?

Nik 2 plugins don't work with my Mac OS and haven't for some considerable time.

The software compatibility transition should be seamless, not an afterthought.

I must be reading that differently.

I see this as Nikon taking the opportunity to 'retire' some of their earlier software versions by default. Computing (PC and MAC) is full of non backward compatilbility. Why should nikon be the only ones to continue support for all its old software?
