    Thinking about finally upgrading to Tiger and fcp5. I know it will do okay on my G5, but what about my G4? It is a:

    G4 dual 1ghz with 1gig ram

    Anyone with that same set up and had success/failure running tiger and fcp 5?

    thanks,
    velma

    You might not like the results on your G4. Tiger really chews up processing.
    Check the specs at the apple.com store.

    This is my standard sigfile so do not take it personally: “For crying out loud, read the freakin’ manual.”

    My G4 Dual 867 with 768MB RAM and basic graphics card works fine with SD DV in FCP 5 and Tiger is no problems – you just don’t get all the widget eyecandy, no big deal.
