Guessing it is from powermac days = apple stopped Rosetta after Snow Leopard - very sad - as when Rosetta was added - it seemed like mac was not going to pull a windows and require users to redo or repurchase apps.

May 24, 2015 2:31 PM in response to Charlesmackintoshby MlchaelLAX,On your Yosemite Mac you can run the emulator SheepShaver for Classic Apps and Rosetta has nothing to do with Classic apps.
Here is a recent post I compiled for a similar question:
With the newer Intel Macs, you have to run a Classic emulator such as SheepShaver, which requires you to extract the Mac ROMs from your older Classic Mac and then install Mac OS 9.
A related program is Chubby Bunny, which comes bundled with all of that included (google the term "Classic-On-Intel v 4.0.1 chubby bunny").
