sharing project files between Intel and G4 and G5s.
I am thinking about buying a 17″ Macbook Pro and installing FC Studio 5.1 on it to compliment the 2 other workstations and laptop that we have in our facility. Everybody is running Tiger and FCP 5.04. Will I have any problems sharing project files and media between the Intel Mac and the rest of my computers?

No one has a 17inch Macbook to tell you the answer. I would guess it would be fine. If you have FCS 5.1 on the G4 and G5.
Hope this helps-

Apple sent us an Intel Macbook Pro with Logic and FCP 5.1 to test. Other than speed differences, you will not even know you are on an Intel Mac. It’s a beautiful thing. However, FCP 5.1 will read 5.0 files but 5.0 will NOT read 5.1 files.
I’ve been using a TiBook 400 and 500 from the day they were released and shipped. After testing the Macbook Pro, I can’t wait till my new one comes in. In my mind the new Intel Macbook Pro is the finest all around personal computer yet.
Yes, I installed XP on it and yes, it works like one would expect on an fast Apple/Intel laptop. Playing around with Windows on a Mac gave me a chance to compare these two operating systems side by side. I won’t waste the bandwidth or time sharing my observation.
