[QUOTE="Aptmunich, post: 179055, member: 3850"] The latest macs (iMac core duo & Macbook Pro) have a different chip type in them than previous ones. (Intel Core Duo - the old ones had PowerPC G4's & G5's). Rosetta is a technology than "translates" programs written for the old chips, so they'll run on the new ones. Currently most apps are being redesigned to run on both chips, as all new software will. It is more or less unnoticeable for most tasks. [/QUOTE]
