    I think you’re going to have to wait until NAB to find out when the Universal Binary version of AXP will be released. Until then, there’s always iMovie, or as of a couple weeks ago there’s FCP.
    Neither is Avid, but you should be able to get things done in the meantime.

    Xpress Pro’s almost certain not to work properly if at all even if you could get it open, but the dongle recognition it actually due to the fact that the driver for the dongle, provided by the dongle manufacturer have not released a UB version of this driver yet – PowerPC kext (driver) files can not be run via Rosetta on Intel Macs.

    So it will require them and Avid to produce UB versions of their software.
