17” 1.67GHz G4 SuperDrive good for FCP cutting?

[Walter Biscardi]

The 17″ is fine. More rendering than a G5, but if your work is mainly DV based editing, the laptop is fine.

I have the 17″ 1.5. It works great; put in the max for RAM (but don’t pay for Apple’s RAM, way too expensive, get Crucial’s), get the big 100G drive, get a second monitor to use when you can (17″ looks pretty small next to a 23-24″ LCD) , do a search in this forum, it’s been discussed dozens of times probably (even this and last month).
