I have a G5 dual with 2 GB RAM and right now I have running: Dreamweaver MX
2004, ecto, InDesign CS, iTunes, Art Director's Toolkit 4, Preview, Font
Agent Pro, Web Confidential, Timbuktu Pro (but not connected to anything at
the moment), Illustrator CS, Safari, LaunchBar, Photoshop CS & Transmit. I
am not seeing any memory issues, but I guess it depends on what you're doing
in the applications.

You may try giving Photoshop a larger portion of the memory pie if you're
finding that's where the drag is. VersionCue is also on the slow side.
