I planned on buying a digital copy of Diablo II to prep my left click muscles for any potential beta access to Diablo III in the near future. Despite the requirements stating that Diablo II can run on "Mac OS X 10.3.9+", the installer gave me "You can't open the application installer because PowerPC applications are no longer supported."
I'm on Mac OS X 10.7.1 where access to PowerPC applications has been phased out (the compatibility layer Rosetta isn't installed in 10.7). Is there any other way I can play Diablo II on my computer?

Barring an update from Blizzard that seems, to be frank, incredibly unlikely, The only way to play Diablo II on your Mac is to run an older operating system. Either natively, such as Windows via Boot Camp, or simply having an install of 10.6 on another partition, or through virtualization software like VMWare or Parallels.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
