The Intel Macs arrive

Well, as expected, Steve Jobs announced the first of the new Intel Macs today. The MacBook Pro looks very nice. I'd be interested - if I hadn't bought a new powerbook last year. Ah well, better to let the early adopters knock off the rough edges...

What does this mean for our applications? Whilst we do plan to release 'Universal Binary' versions of our applications, we are currently unable to do so because...

1) We use a third party library that isn't currently released as a universal binary
2) We don't have an Intel mac to test it on.

I expect the first problem to be rectified eventually (come on eSellerate!). As for the second issue...I was hoping an nice cheap intel mac mini would be announced today. Sadly not.

In the meantime, I'm pretty sure there's nothing in either app that will stop them running under Rosetta and neither is processor intensive so should run just fine (of course let us know if they don't).
