Just because the almighty Apple won't "support" something doesn't mean 
it won't work.  It will work, but iDVD 4 will be SLOW.  If you could 
find a copy of iDVD 3 (part of the original iLife package - 1.0), that 
may better suited to your hardware (you may also need an older DVD-R 
drive like the Pioneer 105 or 106 for iDVD 3).

You can always get a G4 processor upgrade (hopefully you have a G4 with 
AGP graphics?) -- they're getting cheaper and cheaper.  I don't know 
what your budget is, but you can get 1 GHz G4 upgrades for about $300 
now.

2 cents.
