If your scanner's driver is only PowerPC, it cannot load into the same
memory space as an Intel program and then use Rosetta. So a PowerPC
plug-in won't run in an Intel application. My neighbor told me this
morning she had to erase her disk and re-install the OS after some
Canon software played Hobb with her system. I'm not certain exactly
what software it was. She was using CS4.
