Not surprising, they were working on this version well before Apple decided to go Intel.

Gee, lets see, Apple release Intel computers ahead of schedule, doesn't let it's developers in on the secret, and then mac users wonder why there is no Intel version.

Maybe Apple shouldn't be so mean to it's developers.

Meh if it's Adobe then they are not to blame. Imagine if Quark had announced their next version wasn't Universal. How long now for Universal Photoshop hmm?

cheers

People forget in a lot of cases its just not a case of recompiling the program with a flag set. Often there is legacy code that requires rework. Compound that with the fact that Elements 4 has been in the pipeline before the announced thread and now apple releases mactels ahead of schedule.

Hmmm, well, I guess I'll stick with my crumby old PS7 then for a little while longer … (I just use it to color correct some images, so who cares.)
I don't suffer from insanity, I enjoy every minute of it.

Has anyone tried Elements 4.0 with an Intel Mac? I'm an old Elements user from Windows, but have a new MacBook Pro. I've found iPhoto 6 to be kind of buggy (it destroyed a photo library I spent hours building), and I can't stand the way it manages the dates of the photos.

Does Elements run acceptably well under Rosetta?

Thanks!

IMO, this is not a bad thing, by all accounts elements 4 is worse than elements 1. i have elements 3 on my macbookpro and it runs fine, not great but it runs fine. so i say get yourself an old copy of elements 3,2 or 1 and enjoy.
