'universal' applications?
i've done a search on the forums and wanted to know what is the term 'universal' defined with latest software by apple and other vendors? i read in a past post that running mac software (non-universal) on the mactel chip hardware (desktops or notebooks) will not run efficiently, yet the application will run slower? is this correct or did i read some misleading information?! clarification is always appreciated.

I can't confirm this, but from listening to the InsideMac podcast it sounds like photoshop cs2 is ok for the occasional use. They also say that if you earn your living from photoshop, or if you are in front of it all day, you might want to stay away from cs2 on the Intel Mac. Of course that may all change with the screaming fast MacPro.
