Get used to it Philip. The last PPC-based Mac rolled off the production line years ago now, and I don't think Apple have any inclination of returning to PPC. The sooner they can force people to go Intel, the more likely we are going to see a much slimmer OS X without all the PPC baggage.

Not only that, but some SL features will only be available if you have the very latest graphics processors <http://www.macfixit.com/article.php?story=20090612121357227>.
