All this is interesting but not relevant. When Rosetta first disappeared, there were rumours that people had made it work under Lion by installing the Rosetta module. Unfortunately while this is necessary it's not sufficient. There are all the libraries and frameworks that Apple maintained two versions of, one set for Intel, and one set for PPC written in PPC code. It is this latter set which is no longer supplied by Apple, and no third party is going to be able to provide it. -- Tim "That excessive bail ought not to be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted" -- Bill of Rights 1689
