Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone could offer their experiences using iLife '08 on an iMac G5.

I've got a 1.6 Ghz w/ 1.25 GB of ram, running Tiger. Performance is my main concern before I decide to buy it. Is it sluggish? Any help at all would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

2.0 GHz G5, 2GB ram.

I find performance to be good. Encoding video takes "forever", but everything else seems pretty smooth.

A gig of ram for your rig shouldn't cost you much...
