I have heard from various sources that 'Rosetta' the PPC emulator for Mac OSX is likely to go away with the release of "Lion" this summer.
On my main mac when I try to find the PPC binaries, I go to the System Profiler and select Software->Applications the response is that 'No information is available'. I suspect root cause of the problem is that spotlight is broken on this particular mac ( The indexing process dumps core...Apple seemed to think that a corrupted file was the cause but offered no hints on how to find the 'bad files'. 1) Is there any other way to see which apps are PPC? ( doing a get info on at least 150 apps seems sorta painful... I know RapidSVN is PPC based, does anyone else know of a (free gui based) SVN client? 2) I keep getting a request for a password from something that advertises itself as a mobilesync client. This only seems to occur on one of the three macs I am using. Does anyone know a way to stop this behavior? 3) Whenever I reboot one of my macs ( with an attached usb drive) I *always* get asked if I want to use the usb drive as a time machine destination. I answer 'never' but I use super duper to clone the drive five days a week... Is there a file I can create on the mac that will prevent the asking when it gets copied to the usb drive via SuperDuper?
