    I have FCP open, I am rendering an animation in After Effects, I am uploading 2 movies to my client’s FTP site, I am encoding a Windows Media movie for another client out of Quicktime with the Flip-4-Mac convertor, I am copying a file from my other G4 via the network, I am listening to KPRI SanDiego in iTunes and I am writing this post, all on a Mac G4 dual 1-gig.

    Talk about multi-tasking. And I’m not even on Tiger yet. Or a G5!

    Love it!

    OK,

    Rich I can do all that all while talking on the phone with my headset, cooking my tuna fish sandwich with my left hand, taking notes with my right hand, typing on the fcp keyboard with my right toe, using my left foot with a foot pedal mouse, backing up all my harddrives to my raid, dvd’s, cd’s, iomega discs, usb jump drive, and even an outdated 3.5″ floppy.

    And top it all off while watching and listening to CNN on the latest news on Aruba, Iraq, the White House and what latest Internet worm Microsoft is responsible for.

    All this only possible on the mac cause I ain’t got no virus.

    Why aren’t you batch capturing or rendering too? Such wasted computer cycles.
