I think that's still great, though. In a situation where you have 2 or 3
Macs in the house but only one is a high end machine with SuperDrive, this
allows your other family and/or friends to do all their authoring and
creating with the complete iLife suite on their OWN computers. When
finished, they can just come to the main Mac for final burning. At least
this patch provides another workstation for iDVD to be used in terms of
creating the actual content. In my case, my roomate has an iMac and I have
another G3 in various rooms. Having iDVD launch and work on those machines
allows the big G4 to stay open for work and not be tied up in the creating
stage of building the actual content of the DVD. Then burning can be done
overnight.

I'm looking forward to trying that patch - I hope it works for me.
