Can anybody point me in the direction of scitech apps (e.g. Macaw) that
have a native PowerPC version available, or coming soon?

The Macintosh version of NCBI's Entrez molecular sequence retrieval program
is now packaged as a "fat" binary, containing native code for both 680x0 and
PowerPC-based Macs.  It will be distributed on Release 11.0 of the Entrez
CD-ROMs, which will mailed to subscribers in the next few days.  It is now on
the ncbi.nlm.nih.gov anonymous ftp server, in the /entrez/current directory,
as entrez.hqx.

We expect to revise our version of the NCSA socket library to be compatible
with the new MacTCP headers within the next few months.  At that point we
will release a fat binary of Network Entrez, the Internet client version of
Entrez that does not require a local copy of the Entrez CD-ROMs.
