Thanks. I’ve done every fix known to man. Apple, I must say, has been peachy. I wept and wailed and they are sending me 10.4 which I can then update to where I was. When it arrives. In a week.

I checked with adobe updater and it said I was up to date. I’ve downloaded every update every time adobe said I should. I’ve had other weird problems with Leopard on the G5. (But not on my old G4 powerbook.) I’m attempting to reinstall the latest system discs I can find — 10.3, and hopefully get back to 10.4.11 which was just wonderful and problem free.

Thanks, Kevin for all the info. You just answered all my questions. Next I have to ask the CalDigit people if they have a card that works for my external serial ata. L.

The above setup, a Mac Pro Quad with 8GB of Other World Computing RAM will cost you about $2800. You could probably sell your current machine for $1200 or so in today’s market, meaning you would need to come up with $1,600 or so to make the switch.
Okay. So, you say 2800. I need a decent video card (can’t use the one I have, right?) and internal drives are extra, bigger main drive is extra? Well, at least the last time I looked I was looking at 7 grand — true, I was looking at Apple RAM… You guys make it seem possible. Easy, even. I will check it out. Waiting on an influx of dough.

Just wanted to let y’all know. I’ve downloaded the nucleo demo and I’m rendering out PSD sequences, and it’s working really great. I’ll buy nucleo — which is a lot cheaper and lot less time consuming than a new computer. I’m very happy with all this. Thanks, thanks, all.

Oh, thanks!!!! I’m very grateful for the benchmark comparisons. They are meaningful, and, if a couple little ships come in, I may be able to spring for bigger/faster. Meanwhile, I’m going to follow advice here, including, especially, My recommendation is that you do your renders as PSD sequences… This way you will only need to render out a small minority of trouble frames later on down the road. Import your PSD sequence into AE to preview it in full motion, and render out to lossless (or do whatever it is you need to do) when you’ve got a sequence that is working for you. .
Also, will go for nucleo pro, simply because if I actually CAN render in the background, at least I can keep working (I can, can’t I?). L. -
hey, thanks all. I’ve done the cropping thing and reducing size, etc. BUT, in my sad experience, a lower res and skipped frames both leave unrevealed serious problems which only show at a full res render. So, what I’ve been doing is full res renders, then taking notes, going in, fixing, full res render, etc. I think nucleo pro is what I’m going to try next — at least I can render in the background, which is better than going outside and chewing the foliage. Meanwhile, how much benefit might I get if I go into hock and get an intel machine?

Small. Try this first. If it doesn’t work give me your email!
