I've been keeping an eye on this issue (of SPSS on Intel Macs). IIRC,
there's a discussion of this on Macintouch.

According to SPSS, some functions don't calculate correctly and will
give wrong results. People have tested their scripts on both Windows
and Intel Mac versions and haven't seen these discrepancies and are
hoping SPSS can be more explicit about which functions aren't working.

Also, you have to use version 11, not 13, on the Intel Macs.
