theSpam Posted April 22, 2006 Share Posted April 22, 2006 Well, first of all, Rosetta allows you to run PPC applications. To check if you have Rosetta, simply try a PPC application such as Messenger for Mac.

Radoslav Posted April 22, 2006 Author Share Posted April 22, 2006 WOW Messenger works just fine A bit slow but even in windows it is slow. SO that means that I have rosetta. Now is that the only benefit of rosetta-to run ppc apps?

djmastera2000 Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 Yes, it's like an emulator. You can say, it translates ppc extensions to x86. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/15770-do-i-have-rosetta/#findComment-101273 Share on other sites More sharing options...
