First thing is to record the file and listen to that. The stuttering is a 'feature' on the Mac side of this program. Apparently, not to be fixed. Even with the a 1.8 the stuttering will happen but not necessarily after being recorded.

I run G5 -1.6- 3 GB ram. Everything stripped, minimized or optimized. Big score long running time and only a few places where I had to simplify the orchestration in order to get a satisfactory performance.
Doesn't mean I'm not pissed tho'

Based on the miserable performance I'm getting on my current setup, I would guess that you would need at least a 1.8 GHz G5 with 1.5 GB of RAM to run Finale and GPO simultaneously without things getting unusably slow. Does that gibe with everyone else's experience?

Is anyone running Fin2005 + GPO on a PowerBook with 1 GB of RAM? The current PowerBooks have similar specs to the Mac mini -- 1.33 to 1.5 GHz G4 with no L3 cache, PC2700 RAM, 167 MHz bus, slow (4200-rpm) hard drive. [The only significant difference is that the PowerBooks all support more than 1 GB or RAM, while the Mini does not.] If so, are you getting acceptable results?

The GPO sample library is great. I'm just hoping I'll actually be able to *use* it on a 1.42 GHz Mac mini with just 1 GHz of RAM. (And god knows I had enough performance issues with Fin2005 already, without introducing this fresh complication... )
