I have downloaded the archicad 10 demo for my macbook pro and it says that it can not be install on this platform. So i guess the official answer is, Archicad 10 can not be install in Mac/intel computers. I assume it can be install in bootcamp.

So... does any body really knows when a installable version will be available for mac/intel platforms?
Search the forum there is a work around for installing on a intel mac. I believe this involves first installing on a non intel mac first and then physically copying the installed application to the intel mac.

Yeah, hassle. install on a PPC machine then network the Mactel and drag over the AC10 folder. Works fine. No, I don't think you can put the Mactel in target mode via firewire and install to the disk directly. I tried that but because I already had AC10 on my G5, all it would let me do was a repair or uninstall. Maybe if you had no AC10 install on the the PPC machine to begin with?

I think GS is just being (over?) cautious since ArchiCAD in Rosetta is not officially supported (though it seems to run just fine). Just be glad to be on a Mac where you can drag install an application.

I heard that it's actually a bug in the installer. AC works under rossetta but not the installer.

On the german archiforum.info site is a discussion about the MacIntel ArchiCAD beta version and how well it is running.

a friend of mine (who i'm meeting with later today) bought a macbook a couple of weeks ago and has been running archicad 9 and 10 with it . . . i'll ask him later about his experiences and write more later . . .
