Shockwave goes Universal, iSketch players rejoice
I’m a pretty big iSketch fan for boring nights and afternoons, and it’s always been somewhat of a pain to deal with Shockwave being PowerPC-only. Finally, after waiting a long time, Shockwave released a Universal version that doesn’t require checking the “Open using Rosetta” box on a separate version of Safari, one of the only workarounds besides using a legacy browser. I know you’re asking yourselves “Who uses Shockwave anymore?“ and the answer is, “idiots”. Sadly, those idiots have put out marvelous games with it (iSketch), so it’s actually necessary. Adobe seems to keep slowly pushing Shockwave, now with the Intel compatible Shockwave 11.

This article would be wonderful if it were accurate. Sadly, iSketch is not compatible with Shockwave 11. Why didn’t you test this out before writing this article?
