Dear All,

One of our customers would like to know wether the version 10 of ArchiCAD ...

Is Universal Application on the new Intel Mac? or Is it running thru "Rosetta"?

What's the minimum hardware configuration?

How is the perforamance on Mac portables like

1) MacBook?
2) MacBook Pro?

any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in Advance.

cheers,
Srinivas.

You may find the answer to some of your questions here:

Other will probably comment on hardware specs though. Good luck.

Cheers,

I just tried to make a QTVR object on the Mactel beta and it told me to load the QTVR add-on (which is already loaded - by default). Is this feature not yet compatible with the Mactel version?

BTW: I had to reboot in XP to get the work done. It's particularly annoying since it is significantly slower than OS X.

I don't recall about the expiration. If it is 31 August they had better get the fix in soon (or at least release an extended deadline version) or I will be mighty unhappy in Nottingham next week.

GS: Please comment!

Release candidate expired today on the 30th. Graphisoft promote the use of the Mactel version then don't give you the final release before the release candidate expires.

Have to now change the computer's date to get it to work.
