That is just funny. Srsly, Microsoft?
I think Office 2008 also ran on PowerPC. So if you want to have a
single installer that runs on either architecture, and PowerPC can
only run PowerPC code, but Intel can (at the time) run both, their
approach makes sense.
Not really, because MacOS supports multi-architecture binaries that will
run on whatever you have. MS was just being slow/lazy. They could have
easily recompiled their installer with the latest dev kit to make it
dual-architecture.
