To tell you one thing, Mac OS X leopard is really heavy on PPC
computer video cards if they are under 64MB VRAM, more or less the
video performance wouldn't be expected to be normal considering the

My G5 won't let me install my Photoshop CS3 discs . . . just spits it
out.
Same for ProTools LE 7 disc. Just spit it out.
Installs from Apple will work, but it's almost as if all other brands
won't install.
Any ideas?

I have a 1.8GHz G5 PowerMac. Soon i'll get a double 2.3GHz G5. Do you
see anything wrong with simply removing the hard drives from my
current G5 and placing them in the newer one?

Yeah, my first inclination was to do a migration assist. Maybe I'll do
that with the primary drive, and swap the secondary drive.
Unless the drive in the 1.8GHz is larger then I would just use
Migration Assistant to move the 1.8 to the Dual 2.3 machine. But a
drive swap is simple to do

I'd never done that before. I had a Gigabit Ethernet G4 for several
years, never heeded to. Now, I guess, I should try it. I'll look up
how to do this.

The latter lacks the connector to add a second internal hard drive; it

It's been years since I've been active on these lists. I come out of
lurkage a bit confused, largely because, well, I've forgotten some
things I used to know about my Macs.
I've had two PowerMac G5s for some time, a 9,1 and an 11,2 — that is,
a Late 2004 1.8GHz and a final year model G5,
A few years ago a friend's cat chewed up the antenna on my old G5, 1.8.
Now I need it! Finding a replacement seems rather expensive though.
Look at this price!
