You were using a ProTools rig on a G3 iMac? Really? I’m a bit surprised, considering not only the tiny screens, but how underpowered they were. I would have expected a PowerMac G3 for that sort of work.
Come to think of it, it was a G4 (and then a G5). It was mostly VO work, so it was really all that was necessary at the time. Also, I was using the M Box, which didn’t have many inputs and I was usually only recording on one channel anyway.

No, but if I can’t use my ProTools rig on my iMac G3, what’s the point of living?

I know the MBox. And a G4 iMac makes more sense. 👍
