Dan,
"Or you go virtual..."

There seems to be a bigger (or more vocal) outrage that 10.7 doesn't have
Rosetta than when 10.6 only ran on Intel Macs or when 10.5 dropped the
Classic Environment.
BTW, has anybody tried installing Rosetta AFTER they've installed 10.7 from
the 10.6 installation DVD ("Double-click the Optional Installs folder, and
then double-click the Optional Installs package. Follow the onscreen
instructions. Select the disk where you want to install Rosetta and click
Continue. Select the checkbox next to Rosetta, click Continue, and then
click Install.")?
Also, I definitely don't have megabucks and I don't think it costs megabucks
to partition a Mac, even if one has to purchase a new external HDD.
