I believe it is you who does not get it, in 2 years all
computers designed and built by Apple will have Intel chips,
for the first year or so there will be Intel and PowerPC, but by
the end of 2 years ALL Mac's will be Intel based.
There are a lot of differences, but Rosetta will allow old
software to run on the Intel chips.
