If you're still using (a perfectly good) PowerMac G5, it might be time to start considering an upgrade."</em></p><p><em><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/at/auto/1250479609.usr105634.jpg" style="border: 1px solid #d2d2bb;" /></em></p><p>The pro video apps are already intel only so this is a logical step taking the rest of them to intel-only. If you are using a PPC Apple now, you probably aren't in too big of a hurry to upgrade so I doubt you will update your software right when it comes out anyway. But if you are looking for an excuse to upgrade to Intel, then this is as good a reason as any. I didn't upgrade my PPC G5 until I got tired of how long it took me to convert video with Handbrake, so I guess everyone has their tipping point. </p><p><em></em></p>
