I was considering buying a Power Mac G5, as I heard editing on Final Cut Pro goes pretty much smoothly there and I was interested in using Final Cut Pro (yes, I don't only do AMVs, but other stuff as well). G5s are pretty much half the price of the new MacPros (1000-1500 EUR) - secondhand though - so that's why I was interested in in getting one.
But I just had a few questions: first of all is it wise to do this? I don't know what's going on with the new Intels, but let's say a new version of some software will be released, what's the thing on the compatibility with the PowerPC Macs? Is new Mac software optimized especially for the Intel processors and will they only work for those or can programs be used on whatever Mac (as long as its strong enough)?
And second, will Motion run on a G5?
Thanks in advance!
