Macs do work, just like PC's, but a 1ghz g4?
I'm amazed you can even send an email with that thing.
How many of you are running a 1ghz 10 year old PC with cubase 5 and a bunch of new plugins. I bet that works nice
I too struggled with a 7 year old PC for music production, but software has constantly moved on and the requirements, according to moores law have increased by 64 times since that g4 was new. As I remember that would have also been one of the base models at that time.
Get a new mac and don't look back (or at system overload errors again). I got an imac a year ago and see that warning maybe once a month if I'm unlucky.

This computer works great. It does everything I need it to do, and well. Music production, design, video editing, you name it. The stuff macs are designed to do. I just shouldn't have been trying to push it so hard. Sometimes I forget my computer is almost 10 years old.
I would take this obsolete mac over a brand new PC any day.

where are all the mac fan boys now? I seem to remember a recent post about "peace of mind and stability" as to why the entire world should convert to MAC.
I feel for you guys, there is nothign more frustrating than your system not being able to cope.
I cured my issues by getting a UAD card and using the effects on that.
Also more ram helped but the UAD was just what my system needed.
