Moving to a new mac, PPC =>Intel
#11
[quote AllGold]When I went from PPC to Intel, I discovered I had an enormous amount of CRAP in my Applications folder. Apps I hadn't used in years and of course everything was entirely PPC when there were universal/Intel versions available for almost everything.

Not using Migration Assistant for the apps turned out to be a big advantage in this case.
Thanks, this is a hint of the kind of info I was looking for. . . don't much know the difference between a PPC version and a "universal" version. What sorts of apps have Inter versions available that are free that you use frequently? So far I d/l'd Firefox and it only seems to have one version available (is it universal or PPC? It doesn't really tell you.)
