Intel native on Mac

[simplsol at aol.com]

Marian,
I recently converted some large (30-40 meg.) HyperCard stacks to Rev. I 
used my 1.67 GHz laptop and a 2.0 GHz Intel iMac. Even in Rosetta the 
iMac was twice as fast as the laptop. Since the processors are about 
the same speed, and since the hard drives are only used briefly to move 
the data into memory, I assume the speed increase is because of the 
faster RAM and the faster bus.
The future looks fast!
Also, in a week of testing, the only problem I encountered with the 
iMac was that it refused to read my flash drive - it's the only 
computer to date on which I've had this problem. (Yes, I did try 
plugging the flash drive directly into the iMac, as well as the 
keyboard.)

 Hello Marian, 
 
  Rev just updated their website to show that Native MacIntel support is 
coming soon! Rosetta works well except for video performance. Nothing 
beats going native for sure. Hang in there. Shouldn't be much longer.
