[QUOTE="SanglminLee, post: 2541046, member: 867520"] I'm a Korean who recently got a 27-inch iMac (Intel). Since I'm a Korean, I often use an app called Hangul, which is a word processing software widely used in Korea. Unfortunately, it primarily supports Windows platform, and the only release that supports Mac OS X is for PowerPC platform, which makes me to use Rosetta to run it under Intel Macs. It's still OK, since it runs quite well in Snow Leopard, but real trouble is that I'm really eager to upgrade to Lion, but it doesn't support Rosetta, means I can't run PowerPC apps. So one of the possible solutions in my mind is to find a way to run PowerPC apps without using Rosetta. Therefore, I'd be grateful if anyone knows any alternative way for running PowerPC apps in Snow Leopard, since that would probably work in Lion as well. [/QUOTE]
