Why is that?
It's not like Finale needs to know if the host is dual or single
processor.  The only app needs to know if dual proc would be something
like heavy DSP which process needs to be divided from main host app
process.  Finale isn't that kind of app.

Any app that will have problem on porting to Intel proc is ones coded
with CodeWarrior, a 3rd party Dev Tool, while Apple has been offering
much better env, Xcode since the early OSX era.  It is easy for me to
say they should had rewritten their app from ground up when Xcode was
introduced, and I do fully understand it will cost them a lot in R&D,
but Apple's intention was clear back then.
