Your question was (and I quote): "Anybody had any luck running 10.2 on an iMac DV 400?" It's a very bizarre question because it implies that most people cannot do so. Since that machine more than meets the requirements needed to run OS X, of course it runs OS X. You then went on to ADD that you happen to be running hd recording applications (and you weren't very specific about exactly what you want to run and how demanding you plan to be with it, did you?). Generally speaking, the speed of the HD is very important for those sorts of applications, the actual speed of the processor is less important. You would probably be best off either replacing the internal HD of the iMac with a faster one (the default one is 5400RPM I believe) or using an external FW hard drive of 7200RPM or higher for your HD recording needs. If you'll supply the information we need to make an accurate judgment, I'm sure some of us here can be of help. _Chas_ "We don't want to be like Windows. We want to do everything better.
