Thanks James, Have you heard anything about the GIGAdesigns upgrades? There is a store here that is selling a GIGAdesigns 1.3GHz upgrade with 2MB L3 Cache 100/133 for $539.00. They also sell Sonnet upgrades but they are about $600 for a 1.2GHz. thanks again, -s* On Monday, September 20, 2004, at 03:46 PM, James Asherman wrote: > > On Friday, September 20, 2002, at 03:23 PM, S.Stanley wrote: > >> Hi, I own a G4 400 tower with OS 10.3.4 and I am currenty finding >> that the audio software I am using is really taxing my processor and >> making my programs crash.
