IMHO, Google Earth is hard on system resources, even on high-end Wintel
machines, so I can see where the G5-native stock tuning would be about
right.
I know I wouldn't try it on my 400MHz Lombard, though.

It worked a whole lot better after I turned it down from some of the
high-end video settings which seemed to be more in line with a G5
desktop system's capabilities. Turned down to the medium-type
settings, it runs nicely on my 1.25ghz Powerbook/1gb RAM/64mb Radeon
9600 and also pretty well on my Dual G4 500mhz/1gb RAM/64mb Geforce2.
I don't think I'd try it on my wife's 400mhz G3 Pismo, though.
Do you want a copy?

Hello,
Just wondering if anybody has the Beta version of Google Earth for OS
X ? If so, could you please contact me off list. I just want to
know how well it works on your Mac, etc etc..
I am aware that this Beta version was recently pulled but a number of
people were able to download it before this occurred.
Thank you,
Amber
