Re: --- sick g3 tower --- 2nd question

[Clyde Kahrl]

Don't expect to do DVD quality video with your beige G3.    It just 
gets to be too hard.   I have a video capture card on my beige tower 
with a G4 (I don't use the original personality capture card) and I 
can barely capture 320 x 240 using JPEG B 15 frames etc.   I can only 
do that by using special system settings--turning everything off and 
so forth.   even so I can't get old final cut pro to run on this 
thing with OS9 without crashing all the time.   Also--generallly--you 
have to have software to burn DVDs and that means iDVD or Toast 6 (to 
get the MPEG2 file generally).
I have a 450 cube and there is no comparison between these 
machines--the cube is immeasurably faster at everything, it is 
compatible with all apple software, including iSight, and a cube is 
slower than a sawtooth.  So there's your price point.
