Getting AirDrop to run on older Macs

[_bnkr612]

Using OnyX 2.4.2b2 I was able to toggle AirDrop to display on my '08 Mac Pro and successfully drop a file onto to my '11 MBA. Sadly, I haven't been able to make this work the other direction (MBA to MP).

Just wanted to share with you guys! If someone else has this running on other machines, let us know.

DropBox is still king in this department, but it was nice to be able to get this working on a non-listed machine.
