I have been able to play 80kb draft with SW on my 12″ G4 powerbook with 1.25g ram, Lacie Porche firewire 400 drive. Just have not tried higher data rates. I exported as an edl and then conformed on our Media100 HD quite successfully. Like posted above, if you are working on Media100i as your main system, you should only work with coppies of your bins and programes just incase you need to go back to Media100i with them.
