------- Additional comments from [email protected] Sun Jun 21 00:31:25 +0000 2009 ------- Er, yes, I really do *try* to run OO3 on this computer, otherwise I wouldn't post the problem. If the issue is that OO3 cannot run on a G4 processor, in a usable form, then that's fine - it should just be in the system requirements. In this case I'm not really convinced that processor speed is an issue - as far as can remember the fastest G4s were around 1.4GHz. Even if this was four times as fast at rendering as my lowly 867MHz it would still be unusable. I'm also pretty sure RAM isn't an issue, this machine has 1.12GB. Rebooting the machine with OO3 being the only app running makes no difference to the speed. Right now I'm just trying to help you identify problems with this application suite that effect the PPC builds, to get a larger MacOS userbase. As it stands I think anyone trying to run this on a G4 will just discard it on the first attempt. Overall I can't see any real reason why this should be a problem - because I'm using many other applications on this machine that have no problem whatsoever with text input/rendering: ie QuarkXPress, InDesign, etc - other than there is a specific set of routines that are not "optimised" for PPC. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
