• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

heard this through the grapevine.

The programs listed below have been released - or promised - in "Universal Binary" versions compatible with both PowerPC- and Intel-based Macintosh computers, or in specific Intel Mac versions.

More products are being released in Mac Intel-compatible versions on a regular basis, so we expect updates to the list to be frequent.

Mac OS X programs that are only available in original, PowerPC versions may, or may not, run on an Intel-based Mac using the Rosetta emulator.

No program designed for Mac OS 9 and earlier (a.k.a. "Classic" programs) will run on Intel-based Macs; don't buy an Intel Mac if you have a requirement for these programs (unless someone, as yet unknown, develops a compatibility mechanism in the future).

Other likely trouble spots are plug-ins, peripheral drivers, low-level network programs, security software (e.g. VPN clients) and other programs that interact closely with hardware (e.g. video and audio interfaces).
