[QUOTE="yogi, post: 251882, member: 8542"] Oh god what confusion. Applications are written for a specific OS. What do the requirements on the Adobe box say? "Requires Windows". It doesn't say "Requires Intel". So when you get a mac, NONE of the windows software you own, and I mean NONE will work in that form on your mac. Rosetta is NOT a Windows to Mac Emulator, it is a PowerPC to Intel Emulator, so apps compiled on a powerpc can be run on an intel chip.
