> Will CS5 even run on this machine?

Barely.

See “FAQ: What computer and components should I buy for Premiere Pro or After Effects?”

Todd isn’t too far off… it will run CS5, but you may want to add some RAM if you are planning on sticking with that system. Not much else you can do to upgrade an iMac, except buy a new one.

I just sold one of those for $700 on craigslist. Get what you can for it and get a new machine. Make sure it’s an i7…

Unless you’re fed up with Apple and are ready to move elsewhere.
