Thanks everybody who tried to help me with this. I myself am not a big fan
of Apple's policies. But their products work well and have served my simple
needs. Anyways i am not replying to discuss the apple stance.
In case there are more Mac Users I just wanted to let everyone know that i
did upgrade to SL and assuming i could recompile myself if reqd. But i
didn't have to do anything. During the first boot, SL asked me if i wanted
to install rosetta to run remind and i faced absolutely no issues.
I would certainly try to compile the code to see if i can make latest
version of remind work natively with intel processor and also utilize new
features added to remind, but as of now i haven't lost any of the existing
functionality that i was so dependent on.
Thank you very much to everybody who tried to help. And many more thanks to
the developer for such an amazing application.
Girish
