Any comments on how appropriate or difficult that would be get in the
the alpha3 release?

Well, the only "visible difference" of intel Chandler I can think of would be speed, so maybe we should have a movie showing new- found Mac blazingness :)?

Another suggestion is to have another window near Chandler in the screen shot, proving it's an Intel Mac running the app. (Pedantically speaking, that doesn't prove we built it for intel, though, it could theoretically be running a PPC binary in Rosetta). The best thing I can think of is the "Processors Palette", which shows your CPUs' usage, and has fairly prominent intel chip-like icons.

How about showing the OS X Finder Get Info dialog, showing that it's a "Universal" binary?
