The Geeky Junkyard of kingler

Now lots of people are compiling the open source application for Mac PPC platform into an universal binary.

To make it easier to find these testing binaries, I made a list here:
http://kingler.is-a-geek.net/a-list-of-universal-binaries-for-mac-os-x-tiger/

Take a look at some online forums for more information:

• win2osx
• 360hacker.net
• osx86project

Update 3 (10/9/2006):  This list is getting rather old, but I guess I will just keep it as a proof for the history. For new Intel-native application lists, take a look at the latest universal builds on osx86project Wiki page.Update 2 (04/20/2006): As the new intel Macs become available, everyone is hopping on the “Universal” switch. What a successful switch to Intel, Apple!

Update 1 (11/17/2005): these universal build won’t work on the new 10.4.3 intel developer Tiger system.

Here is a list of universal binaries for both PowerPC and Intelx86 platforms.
