NO KIDDING!
My 466 with 1.12 GB RAM was complaining after only 2 tracks. I am sure
you saw in other posts I had to swipt my fella's 1 GHz G4 iBook.
AND I am shopping for a processor upgrade. 466 to 1.4 GHz is a huge
jump though. Not too sure about heat synchs and all......<GULP!>
The iDVD part really gets me mad. I was using the older iDVD, albeit
slooooooowwwwwwwly, in the Sawtooth.
