What to do about Rosetta ?
What to do with HyperCard? I hated that they killed off that simple but powerful program, but they did. People we move on and because Apple forces us to trash the legacy stuff, we can move quickly to better things.
On the other hand Macs live very long lives, so just don’t upgrade an old computer, or simply make a dual boot system.
I have never tried to make parallels do a Mac in simulation, but that may work as well.
I made a Lion partition and cloned my HD to it and will install it there. For now I cannot do without my Rosetta apps like quicken and photoshop elements. So I will be able to boot into whichever partition I want.
I alsO have a windows 7 partition to boot to or run with VMWare.
