MATLAB: Do I receive the error “Power PC applications are no longer supported” when installing MATLAB on an Intel based Mac

MATLAB

Why do I receive the error "Power PC applications are no longer supported" when installing MATLAB on an Intel based Mac? I am installing R2007a or later, i.e. I am definitely using a release of MATLAB which is a Universal or Intel binary.
