'Universal Mac Client' Isn't same as 'App' - johnglenn2_dotmac

When they say "Client," they don't mean the Retrospect application, they mean the tiny stub that is used for remotely backing up dozens of machines. You put the stub "Client" on each machine that is to be backed up remotely, and it feeds the data to the main application on the host machine. As I write this, that main app is still not a Universal Binary:

BTW, the link you posted doesn't work, it should be this link instead:
