Question about Live 6 Intel-macs and Universal binaries

first of all I don't have an Intel- Mac and I don't think I'll purchase one in the near future , maybe next year . Actually I have a powerBook 1.5 Ghz with 10.4.4 almost two years old (not so much!!) Maybe in my ingenuity I believed that at list during a period of a couple of year using that so call Universal Binaries translation all the program could be executable by PowerPC and Intel-Macs , but from the Ableton press-release about Live 6 it seems that will be only a version for Intel-macs . Am I wrong?

Yes, you are wrong. The Mac version of Live 6 will run on PowerPC and Intel Macs.

There is a clue in Apple's term 'Universal Binary': ie both PowerPC and Intel processors.

There will be Apple machines with PowerPC processors in them sold all this year so i would imagine software to be Universal for at least the next 3 years or so.

Why do you keep posting this? Is it some type of bad joke, or just an attempt to spread misinformation?

btw, you do know that "shareholder" and "co-owner" aren't nearly the same thing, right?
